Are you looking for alternatives to Bandcamp and Spotify? This new artist-owned Bandcamp alternative is now open to the public. You get to keep 100% of your own profits! Bandcamp was sold to investors in 2023, and they take more of your money. Subert is a cooperative, and you can own a piece as a co-owner or join as an artist for free. I have been with them through alpha and beta testing, and there are fewer than 18k artists on the platform right now. 😎 Here's my page (and the promo video I made this morning): https://www.subvert.fm/les-konley

What do you think of this for background music/sound to work to? Feedback? https://www.youtube.com/live/h8GyCOebpoY?si=8WU5F9xiQRzIoygi

First time asking a question on the forum. I’m using Studio One with a custom-built PC. All of my plugins are downloaded to the same folders, but some never appear available when recording/arranging, no matter how many times I rescan. Short of uninstalling/deleting/reinstalling, any suggestions?

AI.... SOooooo.... thought I might throw out a 'controversial' topic.... what do peeps think of using AI generated parts in their music? Are you having success? Inspiration? I know I have been very pleasantly surprised in a variety of ways and would love to hear your experiences. :D
