Every member when they register gets to pick a mentor for a one on one 15 minute session. It's best that you read up on the mentors before you arrive and note a few that you would prefer. One important reason to get on the registration line (besides networking with other members) as early as you can is it's first-come-first-serve as far as choice of mentor. The earlier you register, the more choice. Try to pick someone who is knowledgeable in what you are interested in such as Film/TV cues, Film/TV songs, general songwriting, lyrics, pitching songs to artists, etc.
Be very prepared as far as what music you want to play, what questions you have, etc.. 15 minutes is an incredibly short time so get the most out of it. What do you want to get out of your mentor session? If you have a particular song you are most interested in showing, have your device set to play that song when you get there. If you want the mentor to quickly scan parts of a few songs, have a playlist of just those songs and have the device set to play the playlist.
Taxi says there might be some CD players available but they strongly recommend having your music on your device. As mentioned elsewhere, if your device requires a lightning to headphone converter, bring one. A headphone splitter so you both can hear what's being played is also very helpful. These devices are easy to find on line at Amazon.
Lastly, the mentor session is for learning, not for "being discovered". While great things have sometimes happened (you never know!) if you count on that, you will walk away disappointed.
