166 Placerville Dr, Placerville, California

This will be a 2 hour EVP training session at the Raleys meeting center in Placerville. Jon will be conducting the training session. Up to ten people can attend. This training will involve the use of actual EVP audio footage to train field investigators on how to recognize, extract and store EVP audio for future use.

There is room for twelve people to attend.

The first half-hour will be a PowerPoint presentation of EVP and how it works along with a group discussion about the realities and difficulties of EVP work.

The rest of the session will be installation of the Audacity software (if needed) and then practice EVP extracts by each team member with Jon and any other experienced EVP researchers attending helping to interpret what you may be hearing.

Once the session is complete, you will be certified by GRI as competent to record, download, extract and archive EVP evidence.

We'll encourage you to bring laptops (fully charged), smiles and your own EVPs to share. A set of headphones (preferably cupped headphones or whatever you can find!) are mandatory for this work.

We'll also provide copies of the Audacity software and the LAME dll library which will let you create MP3 extracts from your library evidence and to build the foundations of a true EVP archive you can reference again and again. There is no cost for the Audacity software. You will also be given a copy of the presentation which we will be giving.

Note that we are uncertain as to the Raley's facilities, so we'll play a lot of this by ear. We're not expecting a projector to be handy, but if available, we'll certainly use it!
