Hello CB! I was just wondering if anybody was planning on going to USITT 2011 in Charlotte, NC. Since it's so close to home for me, I am planning on attending for the first time. Is anyone who is going interested in meeting up some time during the conference for a little CB reunion? Hope to see you there!
 
I'll be there! In fact, I'm doing a session on blind testing, and will be later today (I hope) posting on my blog a participatory project related to the session...

I read the related discussion, which was rather interesting, and took the survey this morning. I'll be very interested to hear (bad pun) the results. Unfortunately, for various reasons I won't be able to attend USITT as I had hoped.

Cool, thanks! I just posted it on the main sound forum here too.

Thanks,

Everyone may want to keep one eye on the USITT website. One little nugget of info that was released was a new USITT Membership Benefit: 20% off at Lowes. It was literally being finalized at the conference so it may take a little bit to get the details hashed out and posted on their website.
 
Is this for all membership levels?
