Club Cubase Edmonton is taking a small haitus for the summer.  Meetings will resume in the fall, and the dates will be posted here as soon as they are announced.

When they aren't enjoying the beautiful summer weather, Club Cubase Edmonton typically meets monthly at Grant MacEwan University, located at 10045 156 Street in Edmonton.  It is one of the longest running chapters in North America, and celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2009.  Whether you are a veteran engineer or just curious about how to start making music with your computer, Club Cubase Edmonton offers presentations on a wide variety of music production techniques, product demonstrations (including the occasional sneak preview), and a chance to exchange tips and trips with other members of a great user community.

Stay tuned for the next meeting announcement!
