Stay tuned here on the t.blog and on all social media channels (through the mighty hashtag #TGU18) to see what shenanigans they get up to over there. Something tells me that the tiny village of Treppendorf won’t be so quiet during the next few days…

The day is almost over, and we are glad to announce that all the hard work paid off: everything is up & running and we couldn’t ask for a better result. A well deserved sleep today is what we need, in order to be fully charged and ready for TGU: within 24 hours you will get access to pictures, videos, live coverage and much much more. #TGU18 is coming! ?

Testing, one, two, three: today is all about troubleshooting and making sure that everything will run smoothly for our Thomann’s Gearhead University MEGA-event.

Our helpers are working super-hard, so please show some love for them with a comment below ?

Day 3 – final touches! Our helpers are testing gear, cameras and lights and everything is running smoothly. Musical collaborations are being born along the way, such as the jingle that you can hear in our Coffee Safety Cup video. Pumped to see what else this event will bring. Go!

As we’re close to the end of Phase I, it’s necessary to give you some technical info about our video rooms:
Every video room is equipped with 4 to 5 4k professional cameras, a live-switching workstation with powerful computers and top notch audio cards and 4K switchers kindly sponsored by Universal Audio and Blackmagic. On top of that, the editing room will feature 3 more stations to provide instant videos to our YouTubers. Routing the necessary power and cabling these areas was not an easy task, but our amazing team delivered in time.
One more day left to finish the preparations: be sure to check out our social channels as the team will start video-testing and gear-testing tomorrow. #TGU18 has never been this close!!
Tuesday, May 15, 2018, 1:30 PM
It’s time for lunch for our video team. But instead of eating food and all those common human habits, our crafty guests prefer to feed themselves with some music. And we see nothing wrong with that!
Tuesday, May 15, 2018, 11:00 AM
2 and we keep on rollin’! Setting up the rooms is not an easy task, but Thomann’s little helpers know no fear – as you can clearly see from their faces. No stress at all can be seen in this photographic evidence 😉 Everyone’s bracing themselves for our YouTuber invasion!
Monday, May 14, 2018, 10:00 PM

Rooms start to take shape as we put down the carpets and start setting up the racks and amp shelves. We start to wonder what kind of collaborations will take place in these spaces! There is A LOT of gear involved and we can’t thank our partners & supporters enough for this! ? #StayTuned
Monday, May 14, 2018, 12:00 PM
