Is anyone visiting Belfast for Belfast Tradfest or Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann

[OisinC]

For anyone who hasn't seen, Belfast is hosting both Belfast TradFest and Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann over the next couple of weeks, so the city's going to be full of music. From everything we've been hearing, it's set to be one of the biggest celebrations of music the city has seen, bringing together musicians, educators, researchers, performers, producers, and music lovers from across NI, Ireland and around the world.

We're a small music technology startup based in Belfast, so naturally we're excited to see the city buzzing with people who care deeply about music.

We also know there are quite a good chance that some of you all will be making the trip. If you happen to be in Belfast and have an hour to spare, we'd genuinely love to meet up. Whether you work in music production, live sound, restoration, composition, audio research, or you're simply passionate about sound, we'd be delighted to have a chat.

A few updates from Lú

While we've been getting ready for the busy music season, we've also been working on making it easier for people to explore HRF.

We've recently published a couple of new audio comparisons, A/B demonstrations, and listening samples, including content inspired by Irish traditional music, so people can evaluate HRF using their own ears rather than relying on marketing claims. If you get a chance to listen, we'd genuinely appreciate hearing what you think and whether there are other demonstrations you'd find helpful.

We've also introduced a 50% educational discount for students and educators, making HRF more accessible to those learning, teaching, and researching audio.

Finally, community feedback has been incredibly valuable in helping us improve both HRF and the resources around it. If you try the plugin and send us your honest feedback by email, we'd be happy to see if you're eligible for an additional community discount as a thank you for helping us continue improving the software.

Whether you're travelling to Belfast or simply following the events from afar, we hope you have a fantastic couple of weeks filled with great music, inspiring conversations, and new connections.

If you're in Belfast, don't hesitate to say hello, we'd love to meet fellow members of the KVR community.

See you around!
