Yeah, Non-profit is a very weird grey area. Sorry to lash out at commercial radio man, I just really hate it. They co-opted our airwaves long ago and have filled them with serious garbage. I've heard that some commercial stations are going to public radio route because advertising is drying up. I fi...

You guys are right. I don't have a sizable fan base. I play in three bands, including my solo project, and the bands are much busier and more popular than my thing. I mostly do it for my own pleasure/outlet, and for my friends and family. However, I am not afraid to say it: I'm a good songwriter/arr...

I've done that many times, I'm over it. I don't want to have another box of debt in my closet. People say they're going to buy your CD, but most don't. My last CD paid for itself, but just barely. I'm debt free now, and I plan to stay that way. I'd rather let people know that there will be a CD... I...

Well of course. I'm well aware of that. I've mostly approached family, friends and the few fans I have. I'm just putting it out there in the world to see what people think. Like I said, I'm only trying to raise 4 grand. One week in and I've already raised 10%. I think that's pretty good mileage for ...

Yeah, I heard an NPR story about Jill Sobule. She raised 85 grand for her album! I'm only trying to raise 4000, and if I'm lucky, enough on top of that to make vinyl. Shouldn't be too terribly hard, but it is going slowly.

Can the public radio model work for bands?

I'm trying to find out if people will invest in a band (or solo artist) before a CD is made. You can download "A Mass In Empty Space," the first song from my new album at the Virb page below. It was recorded on a Tascam 16 track 1" and mixed in Logic with UAD plugs. You can read about the financing ...

Warranty for cheap gear, but not good stuff?

I just wanted to relay my recent experience with Yorkville Sound. I have one of their ART Pro Channel strips. I was about to sell it and realized that it was having problems and needed repair. I thought I would be out a few hundred bucks, as I'm not going to invest cash in repairing a cheap Chinese ...

Apogee Ensemble Volume Bug

Has anybody experienced this Ensemble bug? When I try to adjust output levels in the Apogee control panel in Logic, the main out and both headphone icons pop up on the screen at once and start freaking out. The same thing happens when I try to adjust the volume in Maestro, all three output volumes z...

WTB- UAD-1 Card or Cards

Hi,

I want to pick up one or two UAD-1 PCI cards to expand my setup. I don't need any plugs, just the cards. I'm in Portland, OR.
