Rehearsal began with the excellent organisation of gear by Michael Oliva who has prepared a flight case of Laptop Orchestra gear for the concert.  1 router, 1 network switch, 2 mixers, a PA, everyone’s laptops, hundreds of mini-jack adaptors and one million network cables later we had Tim Yates’ networked laptop instrument up and running on almost all computers (a slight network port miscalculation but this will be rectified for next week).
