Hi Dave, Welcome to Songstuff! Nice to have you join in with us and explore some of your creativity. Peggy

Yes, it's really tough being able to fit it all in. Promo definitely needs a plan. It takes time for most of the steps, such as building and maintaining a fanbase. It's good to get started ahead of time, so you will be prepared for a release.

Manager roles, responsibilities, compensations are based on the agreements that are established. You need to put some thought into what you're wanting them to do. Get someone that's enthusiastic about your music, for sure. For a lot of indie musicians, you hire a manager when it's worth paying for one and/or when you can no longer handle all the responsibilities that the manager can do. So before musicians are ready or able to hire others to help with their musical career they look at putting together a plan and setting timelines for themselves. Much of the Marketing and Promotion to be considered, are dependent on what you want and what effort you can put into the more business side of music. Items that you could consider are those such as artist bios and images, social networking accounts, website, demos or music available to public in stores, streaming, YouTube, Soundcloud, etc. We have a Marketing and Promotion Club here on the boards. Join us if you're interested in learning or doing some of the promo tasks that you are wanting a manager to do. We also have Marketing and Promo challenges that can get you thinking. Peggy

Hi Chris, Welcome to Songstuff! I am not familiar with Edirol software but mixing can be fun, frustrating and it takes time. Start a topic on the critique board with one of your works and let's hear what you have and see if we can help. Peggy

Welcome to Songstuff, Marko! Jump on boards and I hope you make your next level. Peggy

Hi Mac, For me, if I thought I was too close, or if I heard the similarities, lyrically or in melody, I'd find an adjustment. I wouldn't want it to be like another work. Now with that said, I have written lyrics for old old tradtional tunes where the original artist may not even be known. As of yet, i haven't tried to record those songs. Peggy

Hi Asher, Welcome to Songstuff! Good introduction information. Congrats on your graduation. Nice compositions and creative arrangements. Enjoyed them alot. Since you mentioned your lyrics, we have the critique boards for lyrics and songs, etc. That you might want to check out. If you need help with anything just ask. Great to have you join in. See you around the boards. Peggy
