Abstract:	
		This month, Paul hijacks the Programming SIG talk to
		give his LCA tutorial on LMMS.  
		
		LMMS is a software synthesizer and music sequencing tool
		for Linux and other popular operating systems. It has
		its own instruments and can play samples, LADSPA and VST
		instruments; it can also use LADSPA effects on all
		instruments. It uses standard piano roll and drum
		machine layouts for composing music, combined with a
		powerful automation system for instrument control. It
		comes with a set of music samples and instrument presets
		but also allows you to create your own and use your own
		samples.  
		
		In this tutorial, you will learn how to use LMMS's many
		features to compose music. Bring along your own laptop
		and headphones and you can follow along - this is the
		format of the presentation for LCA. 

Venue:		Room N101
		Computer Science and Information Technology Building
		North Road
		The Australian National University
