The problems I see with allowing this is that some people may not want their music to be park of such a pack, my other issue is that some poeple do not include their license information in the id3 tags. Making it hard to decipher license info.

Re: HALP! It's 8:30PM on Sunday and it says i can't upload to Week one!!! (21 replies, posted in Site Help)
Well I understand for your suggestion of keeping it for the next week or just m,ake a new one ... but its just a bit frustrating.
I understand your frustration. But again I can't find a record of the submission, which means something must of error'd out and told you, or you didn't press submit. You should of been redirected to the hom page with new text by the timer. "Your upload will go live in X:" Also you wouldn't of been able to submit another song.
This is a project of love and not one for profit, and unfortunately I do not have time to program in a workaround for you specifically since the system is automated.
The browser used is google chrome
Ok well then that get browser issues out of the way.
also it seems i cant even upload a new avatar...
What happens?

Re: HALP! It's 8:30PM on Sunday and it says i can't upload to Week one!!! (21 replies, posted in Site Help)
the name of the track is: "Dweller of Zax"
Yeah weird, it's not here at all, Nor was deleted. did you actually hit the submit button after the track was "uploaded"? or did you submit the form before the song was finished uploading? I'd just like to try to find out what happened.
As of now I see the song on the server, in a temp location, but with no record associated with it, as if you clicked upload, selected the file, and did nothing afterwards. (you need to type in the title and description / tags and then hit the submit button)
Also another note, what browser / OS ?
As for posting for the week that has already past, I would suggest just holding on to the song or making a new one for next week.

GMT !? what is that... 6 hours ahead?.. fuck me.
Yeah sorry, it can be confusing!
It says in the FAQ that it's GMT for the zero hour. However the counter on the front page is accurate regardless of timezone, since its a countdown, and doesn't tell the time.

I have uploaded a song yesterday but it seems it has not been uploaded on the site? and now it seems i cant upload it again ....
Did you have a different username? Was your submission not completed this week and was it posted somewhere else long ago? If so it could of been deleted. But there is no record of a song that was submitted from your current user name.

Re: Headphones... Help me out! (15 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Hmm interesting. The Beyerdynamic's seem to look super comfy! And really nice response too. Do you know what is suppose to be the major difference between the 880 and 770? The graphs I'm looking at seem to indicate that the 880 is a hair better- for whatever graphs are worth. I know the 990s are open ear, but for the extra annoyance of other's hearing me, it doesn't seem to get much benefit.
*edit oh wait, the 880 are open ear and the 770 is closed. wtf is up with the 990. hehe.
Thanks for the input so far everyone. Writing these all down for investigation.

Topic: Headphones... Help me out! (15 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Hey guys I thought this would be a decent topic here. My current "studio" headphones are on their last legs. I'm looking for full-sized headphones for long-hour studio use that have a relatively flat frequency response, well build quality, and comfy!
Closed or open ear it doesn't matter as much as the quality.
My current dying pair is the Sony MDR-v900 ... They are far from the best for frequency response, but they are rugged, nice and punchy bass (it's fun at times!), and have a very decent response time for hear artifacts.
But now that I'm looking at purchasing new ones, I was thinking of switching it up to something more of a flat even frequency response, AND I'd love your input!
My budget is completely flexible depending on whats worth what.
Again, my objective is getting something that sounds decent, but without really being overly colorful aka flat, comfy, quality. etc.
So far the 3 on my maybe list is:
- AKG K 702 http://www.headphone.com/headphones/akg-k-702-black.php
- Denon d2000 http://www.headphone.com/headphones/denon-ah-d2000.php
- Sennheiser HD 650 http://www.headphone.com/headphones/sen

Re: Mastering/Post-production Tips? (15 replies, posted in General Discussion)
anybody know of any decent free compressors or limiters plugins? i used the native ableton one in pre production, but im looking for something else for post. couldn't find any on pirate bay lol.
The basic Ableton effects are pretty good. You won't find anything thats free and better I'd say.

You can edit it now, there should be a music list on your profile only you can see. You can also edit your info after the song is published in 2 days.

Re: Number of submissions/ week (21 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I think it would be good if you could edit your submission until it is "released" at least. I just hit enter by accident before I finished and now I can't get to it to finish the details and such.
Fixed, go to your profile.

Re: Please read to avoid your songs being deleted! (56 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Well done on noticing the cheats. Pretty lame for the first week.
To be honest I think some of the artists in question probably didn't have a solid idea of what the site was about. Probably in part because it's not necessarily easy to explain. Hopefully things will clear up in the weeks to come.

Re: Songs containing samples of copyrighted content (9 replies, posted in Site Help)
If you are worried about copyright infringement than we cannot condone such activities. You can of course do your own thing but I don't think posting mp3 links in the forums will serve much benefit honestly.
