StevieBlunderParticipant
I saw it and was blown away. I’m old enough to have lived through his era first hand but had just forgotten the volume of work he’s done. When he made the comments about the Beatles and others the backlash was strong in my social media circles and a bit over the top given his age and general wit and sarcasm.
Anyway, it got me wondering, just for fun, who gets the bigger monthly residual payout? Quincy or McCartney? This is NOT an attempt to compare quality of work but just from a business level. If your reflex says the Beatles survivors you should see the doc first.
What do y’all think?
StevieBlunderParticipantThanks Michael. I always try to search before posting so as not to be tedious but a search of “exclusive” yields no results and I scrolled thru 6 pages of conversations as well. I posted so as to speed up things as I expect to hear back from the Library pretty soon. I’ll also keep looking but any feedback on the other elements of the offer would be welcomed
StevieBlunderParticipantRegarding this idea, its fully implemented in Cubase 9. There is a chord track, chord pads and chord assistant. The latter can interpret any notes played as a specific chord in real time and there are full scale and voicings to choose.
A stand alone product may have been more viable a few years ago ,but the likely target user would probably have a daw with these features these days.
StevieBlunderParticipantI’d never heard of these guys and the products seem great and the group buy has some great prices. Thanks for posting this

Krisemm- the above is a great place to find plug in discounters. The Bargain Chat section gives a good idea of safe retailers
StevieBlunderParticipantJust saw this follow up from last year. JRR is not a hoax company. That’s kind of an insult since I wouldnt post a link unless I knew the company.
StevieBlunderParticipantI faced the same dilemma a few years ago and tried the Soundcloud Pro account for $50/ year. To me ,its not expensive but SC is a total joke for a composer showcasing their music in a serious manner. Reasons are
1. when your song ends (if its last on your list) SC streams another artist.I wrote to them and never found a way to turn this off.
2 the song order should be drag and drop; just too hard to arrange and sub group.
3 SC calls out songs without a lot of listens with “looks pretty quiet here”…the very last thing I want and I’m not after a lot of listens anyway
I used Godaddy to build me own site : very difficult but more control

The attorney angle jarred my memory regarding an old contact. I’ve been doing instrumental music for the last few years so other than recording singers ,I havent dealt with vocal music especially that which I’ve created, in a while. Good ideas

Like a new Usher or Justin Bieber. I guess a pitchperson would be good, although they’d want a cut and I’d bet that would be 1/2. I was hoping there was an underground or little known site that managers and a/r folks were known to visit. Thanks for the ideas and any more to come
StevieBlunderParticipantAnyone else?
StevieBlunderParticipantThanks for the feedback Michael
StevieBlunderParticipant…also switch to a decaf as time permits
StevieBlunderParticipantThis is an interesting topic to me. I came here today to get opinions of my website I’ve built for the very reason that I cant stand Sound Cloud. I set up a page and even bought the Pro version just to be able to drive Music Supes and such to a place to hear my music. I was stunned to see that SC is set so that when my song ends another FROM A DIFFERENT ARTIST starts to play. This is exactly the opposite of professonal to me. Their response is that they see SC as a music community and were oblivious to the idea that sync composer would not want their page to be a springboard for someone else’s page.
Also, I didnt care about # of views at all , just getting decision makers hearing my music. For some reason SC takes it upon themselves to post comments like “it looks pretty empty here” on a song that hasnt gotten many plays. Thats just stupid to me and at least there should be an opt out.
I know SC is very popular but I cant see why for songwriters
