If you have new music you want to share to get some exposure, post it below! If you want feedback or have a specific conversation about the song, you can do a dedicated post. But if you just want to share something you've release to help get streams, post it below (and make sure you stream other peoples music too!)

Hey guys, wanted to get some thoughts on how we could make this group (both free and paid membership) even better value for everyone. Post your ideas/requests below, and drop a like on the requests you like the most! Some prompts: - What could we START doing that we’re not already doing? - What could we do MORE of? - What features would you like to see added? - What do you get the most value from right now, and how could we make it even better? Obviously can’t make any promises in terms of following through on every suggestion, but I can promise that your suggestions will all be considered and we heavily weight user feedback when thinking about improvements.

Doing a well needed clear-out and found this. I was introduced to Cool Edit Pro at the start of my brief stint as a broadcast assistant, back in the day. It was a brilliant, really easy to use. I continued using it as my go-to editing software after Adobe bought it in the early 2000s and changed its name to Audition, up until the beginning of this year; the CC subscription became a "want", a rather expensive one and, unfortunately, Audition is a part of it. Which audio editing software do you currently use? Or do you just use your DAW?

I was just noticing Logic automatically assigns a myriad of plugins to their session players. For example: Session Bass uses 9 plugins. Seems like a lot to me. Right? The one I use often is Session Drummer. When you use the producer packs the tracks are separated which is what I want so a drum kit is around 14-16 instruments plus rooms plus sub groups plus fx returns. In total it's about 24 tracks. No problem with the tracks but the plugins? 46! Wow! Am I wrong? And the routing? 32 sends! I mean it sounds okay but creates a chore for me. I have no trust of other people making that many decisions for me. I have to touch it all and evaluate it. Brings to mind another thread where a user was having CPU issues with Logic. Session players were my first thought. I have noticed things play fine unless and until you flip the widget to display all the individual tracks and / or try to edit midi if you have converted to midi which I eventually always do. The work around is to only make edits while the drums are in solo when the whole mix won't play without CPU problems. My ultimate workaround is to use a laptop as a midi player and offload the entire task to a 2nd computer. I bring the audio back via Danté using Danté Virtual Soundcard.

All, having invested in sound treatment-solid speakers etc is the final step to calibrate the room using a measurement mic and some hardware / software or is it a waste of time and money ?
