A perennial favorite of NAMM attendees, the events at Avid’s Main Stage for 2019 will host some of industry’s biggest names for a unique creative moment that will also be live streamed with Avid Link.
Feed your passion on the main Avid stage, where you’ll hear from some of the industry’s biggest names, including Tony Maserati, Leslie Brathwaite, Michael Brauer, Andrew Scheps, Alan Meyerson, Tchad Blake, and Will Files!
For this year’s edition of NAMM Avid prepared everything for – another – experience shared with the creative community that visits their booth between January 24 and 28. But because not everybody can attend, now, with Avid Link, it is possible to watch as it happens, because the event is live streamed. Available for Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android, the Avid Link app allows anyone to find, connect, and collaborate with a diverse community of audio and video creators, including producers, mixers, composers, editors, videographers, and graphic designers. Avid Link makes it easier for users to promote their work and skills to a vast network of media professionals, manage and keep their software up-to-date, and acquire tools and skills that expand their creative repertoire.
Avid Sessions with iconic producers
“At NAMM 2019, Avid is connecting the creative community with collaborative workflows for teams and individuals and the new Avid Link app, which brings together the industry’s most diverse and inspired group,” said Rob D’Amico, Director, Audio Solutions Marketing at Avid. “A fantastic line up of industry greats will be headlining on Avid’s main stage, and by streaming live on Avid Link, we’re giving everyone a front-row seat to inspiring sessions and exciting interactions.”
The Avid Main Stage will be the place to hear from some of the biggest names in the music and audio post production industry. These iconic producers, editors and mixers are best known for their works with artists such as Foo Fighters, Cardi B, Lady Gaga, Beyonce, David Bowie, The Chainsmokers and Coldplay, and on films such as Venom and Deadpool, and touring bands like Red Hot Chili Peppers and Weezer. These pros will share their experiences and expertise to inspire other music professionals and aspiring talent to create their best sound in workflows for audio post, music creation, notation and live sound.
