Hi to you all, I found this forum a good number of years ago - surely can't be pushing on 8yrs!? However, work and life commitments have kept me busy and quiet for too long. Now that my daughter is nearly 3yrs old, she can enjoy bashing out a drum beat on storage boxes, pots and pans while I come up with guitar riffs and vocals that may at least impress her. Just wanted to say I'm back and looking forward to sharing ideas with you all, collaborating if anyone is interested and enjoying the music that is shared on this forum. Keep at it guys and gals. Cheers, Stuart

... and the Mac/PC debate goes on! In regards to Shane's query, there are many methods of recording ideas whether purely to record so that a spontaneous idea is not forgotten or to create a demo or final production of your music. Mobile phones offer apps that allow multi-track recording - although this won't be of a very good quality it's a quick way of capturing an idea wherever you are (as is a Dictaphone) - even if you splash out on sequencing software, quality mics etc, you won't necessarily sit down and be flooded with creative ideas so hold on to all the lyrics, melodies and chord chops you've come up with (even if you've woken up the next day thinking it's rubbish) and it will surprise you how these can help tie up songs you're working on.

Alright people! New here, so I'll start by introducing myself. I'm from Scotland and I am guitarist, lyricist, sound engineer and currently working as an audiovisual tech. Glad I've found this resource and look forward to getting some of my song ideas out on this and getting any helpful feedback. Cheers, Stu
