We'd better get in quick with kickstarter so we can get a decent payout then David

That's quite a discussion after the video. The "take the test" between a WAV and an AAC file is still ok to do. The problem is the files are like 40 secs long. Not really enough based on the music sampled to be distinguishable (yep, I didn't get it all right which surprised me). Did you take the test Jim??

She'll pull the strings on your heart then make you feel indifferent - oblivion? A bright future turned into maternity ? you mean eternity? Seems too many words the same, just by adding say a prefix - different/indifferent/security/insecurities etc I'm also having trouble keeping up with the changes in what you're talking about - maybe because it's short?

Cutaia - gonna spell that wrong one day I can't say I didn't look around a few years ago, but I was lucky in finding SS so soon, and quite simply what stopped me going elsewhere was the help, instruction, guidance, critique, friendliness and masses of posts going back over it's 13 years, to glean a lot of relevant info. I've no reason to go elsewhere because even though the range of styles and genre's are apparent, we all do our best to offer feedback regardless of it being "ours". Plus I see lyricists jumping in to music posts and musicians jumping in to help lyricists, etc. The other thing about SS that you may not yet have cottoned onto being new, is all the extra's, the promotion, the free blogs, access to producers etc, collaborations, legalities and on and on. I just don't know of anywhere else that covers all bases under one roof, that also helps you grow, develop and learn - with a commitment like it has. As biased as I am, you found yourself a new musical home and family. End of discussion (Disclaimer - Warning points will be rewarded to anyone who .................... in this thread ) ps - I was paid zero, zilch, nada for saying the above haha

Hiya, does it have to be this version - Ableton Live 8.2.2 ?? Are you familiar with any other kinds of DAWS?

Love it

Hi Chloe, if it doesn't yeild good replies here, let me know and I'll find another place for it. I left a link back at the old place for folks to follow anyway

Great, push this out as much as you can to keep the ball rolling

Hey Chloe, this is a software related Q, so I'd post this over somewhere in http://forums.songstuff.com/forum/132-recording-industry-technology/ You want me to move it over there?

Well Done MMR

Leave it here in the Lounge then Uncle Always good when posting just to add a line (or 2) saying for example, "Just for your listening pleasure fellow SongStuffers", then everyone knows. Thx

I guess play it backwards and listen ?

Hi Uncle, What are you hoping to get back from posting this in 'this' part of the site? Critique? If so, you need to let me know so someone can move it to the right place. Thx

@ Bob Yes, in black and white, every response above can be misinterpreted, even by yourself You created a good topic, a good debate, part of which Songstuff is here for. You've actually got a lot of POSITIVE response. So please don't stop and go to the pub instead

Unless specifically stated by the poster, anything that's posted in a 'critique' board is up for critiquing on all aspects, related to that board. I know profiles state whether they want to accept 'both barrels' - but how many members open a profile up before giving their opinion?

Hobo, if you find one, can I use it too please.

I think the simple answer is whatever they want, which in turn is a massive range of results. A lot of people simply want to learn, attain a new level of experience and expertise, improve themselves etc. Others are trying to achieve the best demo level. Others are pushing their boundaries. Some are aiming high (and yes, there are pro producer members at Songstuff) Those that create for personal reasons, that have ability may post them to help other aspiring songwriters to work harder. The list goes on, in my mind. But you raise a question from me to you - why do you need to know? I accept that someone brave enough to share anything they have created and post here is looking for feedback plain and simple, regardless of what they intend to do with it. Would you only respond to people who want it to be produced? Or would you respond on a carte blanche basis, purely to help and enable them to take it in the direction they wanted, regardless of them saying which direction that is or not? I also think (and thank you for asking this question, as it's raised a good discussion) that perhaps this better suited to be moved to the music lounge for a community-wide discussion, as it may make soome people think more and focus their aims/dreams - Tom?
