The Activities
of JSPA |
| |
JSPA (Japan Synthesizer
Programmer Association) was Established on May 1987 as the
first organization for the synthesizer programmers in the
world.
One of the aims of the organization at the time of establishment
was to elevate the status of the synthesizer programmer at
the recording field.At that moment the synthesizer programmers
were not recognized as performer and their working conditions
were not completed.
Therefore JSPA concluded the agreement with the client companies,so
that the member programmers would be able to devote themselves
to their work.In November 1994,JSPA became a member of the
Japan Council of Performers' Organizations and the synthesizer
programmer obtained the social status as an performer.
AS a past of public activities JSPA often gave "the Concerts
for the Youth".
We are giving the concerts to the students of the elementary
and the secondary schools all of the country and giving them
opportunities to listen to the live music and to touch the
electronic instruments and to give a lecture about the copyright
and the performers right administration to promote a better
understanding about them."The concert for the youth" is held
not only by JSPA itself but also by other music organizations
jointed with JSPA and sometimes with the acoustic instrument.
And further we have given "the Computer Music Seminar" and
"Professional Synthesizer Seminar"for the older students and
working people.
On the other hand,JSPA has given seminars for its members
and put efforts on the study and cultivation.
As the synthesizer is an instrument that was invented very
recently, we often faced various problems which we hadn't
expected. However, we have tried to solve these problems in
cooperation with the manufacturers of the instrument.And the
cooperative relation ship between JSPA and the manufacturers
has promoted the development of new models.
One year after we joined Japan Council of Performers' organizations
JSPA was elected as a committee member of Center for Performers
Right Administration and we will act an important part of
making new system to cope with the future digital network
as a member of the multi-media section of the law department.It
has been pointed out that the difficult problems would be
raised which would not be solved under the present law system.Therefore
what we have to do at this stage is to complete the law system
and we, JSPA,will make the most effort to help all kinds of
artists to be able to perform in the better circumstance.
