Hey everyone, I've been building a desktop app called AEVUM. It's a time tracker built specifically for music producers. It runs in the background, detects your DAW automatically, and tracks how long you spend on each project. No manual timers, no clicking start/stop. Right now I'm looking for people to stress test it. The app is completely free to download and use. ⚠️ Fair warning: you will probably run into bugs. ⚠️ This is still early and that's exactly why I need real people using it. The more eyes on it, the faster I can fix things. If you find something weird, broken, or just off, I'd really appreciate it if you let me know. Drop a comment here or shoot me a DM. Download: https://aevum-time-tracker.netlify.app/ Enter an email to activate the free version. Thanks for helping me make this thing solid. Cheerio, Alex

Hi everyone , I am writing a jazz big band arrangement now for a project. Can anyone help me with Vhorns sax (alto or tenor sax doesn't matter) glide to sound natural and jazzy ( you know what I mean :) ). I want to make a natural glide to F to Bb I think around 7 semitones. Any midi file share would be perfect too. With Respect, Ozan

I just finished building a website for a composer who wants to focus on video games, and I want to share the thinking behind it. Here's the thing: Video game developers are nerds (in the best way). They spend their days building worlds, characters, and stories. If you want to work with them, you need to fit into that world. So instead of a generic "hire me" composer page, we built something that feels like it belongs in a game. What we did: The headline doesn't say "Professional Composer for Hire." It says: "Your players will pause the game just to listen to this." Instead of a boring bio section, we created a Character Profile — complete with "proficiencies" like Orchestral, Ambience, Combat, Sound Design, Adaptive. You know, like the stat sheets you'd see in an RPG. The call-to-action buttons? "Begin Your Quest" and "Summon Character." The music section is called The Chronicles with a custom player that keeps people ON the page (not sending them off to SoundCloud where they disappear forever). And at the bottom? "Accept the Quest" with a booking calendar. Why this works: When someone clicks a button and starts an action, they psychologically want to finish it. A pop-up form after "Summon Character" feels like the next logical step — not an interruption. Everything stays on ONE page. No maze of subpages. No "click here for film, click here for ads, click here for games, oh and also I do pottery." If you want to work in video games, dress like a video game composer. Go deep into ONE industry instead of spreading yourself thin across everything. If you want a landing page like this - targeted to your specific niche, no monthly fees, no hosting costs, no "powered by" logo anywhere - I will create and set it up for you. $147 one-time. That's it. You own it. Drop a comment, DM me if you're interested, or check out this link to see my services. https://risewithalex.com/ (scroll down to "Your Industry-Specific Landing Page")

I have been using Akg K612 Pro for a long time as my main headphone. They are fine in many situations but I always had problems when I have to do mixing and mastering with them. This year I plan to upgrade them. Vsx is catching my attention. I don't know how their headphones sound I would like a open back headphones for home studio though (I think they made a new headphone called Immersion One and it is Planar Magnetic). So I am looking at VSx headphones and also Hifiman Planar Magnetic ones (like anando Nano or something similar). I would love all opinions on this subjects. Btw, I tried Sennheiser Hd 650 . It sounds so similar to my focals Solo be monitors but Low end didn't make me happy on those headphones. Also I didn't invest money on headphone amps, I am using Rme headphone amps on babyface pro fs. I would love all suggestions doesn't make me go bankrupt. Also I would love to hear expensive solutions if it is end game for me?
