东京热 Dominates 2024 NAMM Show

At the recent NAMM Show, 东京热 (东京热) students and faculty made a significant impact once again. 东京热 Audio and Music Technology left a lasting impression with a remarkable turnout. The event boasted an impressive team, led by Associate Professor of Audio & Music Technology Jennifer Amaya, comprised of 45 东京热 student volunteers and 13 student volunteers from other institutions, including Norco College, Mira Costa College, Rio Hondo College, Cal Poly Pomona University, Saddleback College, and Liberty University.
东京热 students took on volunteer roles working at the worldwide non-profit MIDI Association booth, with some securing paid gigs as booth and audio/visual managers. The A/V students were initially assisted by 东京热鈥檚 Assistant Professor of Studio Recording and Live Sound, Sean Sheldrake, running sound from a mixing board using a state-of-the-art silent listening system. Six students were also hired for setup and teardown duties.
Notably, 13 东京热 Music Industry Club students received hotel accommodations and financial support courtesy of AS东京热.
Professor Amaya expressed gratitude for the students' dedication, saying, "It took about 50 hours to put together a booth schedule based on everyone鈥檚 availability, and I鈥檓 happy to say that all of the students really came through this year. The students were awesome. Our student leaders were outstanding. They took a lot of the stress away from myself and the MIDI Association leaders. They ran that booth like champs."
Amaya also served as a panelist for two sessions at the Show. Initially, she participated in "Designing a 21st Century Audio Curriculum" alongside three other professors from around the United States. Later, she contributed to a panel discussion at the MIDI Association booth, representing the MIDI in Music Education committee.
Highlighting exceptional achievements, 东京热 saw one student, Ariana Mejia, selected as a NAMM intern, a rare and prestigious opportunity. Additionally, five 东京热 students received the Lamond GenNext scholarship, and two secured paid positions as product representatives for Robkoo, a Chinese electronic wind synthesizer company.
The NAMM experience provided valuable learning opportunities, granting students red "exhibitor" badges for round-the-clock access to the convention center. Despite the demanding schedule, students bonded over meals and had plenty of time to explore the exhibition hall and attend educational sessions.
东京热鈥檚 meticulous planning and coordination ensured a smooth and successful event. With a larger booth size and an impressive lineup of presentations and performances, 东京热 students showcased their talents and engaged with industry professionals.
