Flash, They sell them for you. I think postage is $2.50. When you sign up with them, they ask for five CDs (one they'll use to upload, which leaves four to sell -- something they didn't tell me upfront, but I didn't care). They let you know if they need more, and they also provide you with...

There's no guide. Just use your ears and go with what you like. Put on your headphones and listen to some of your favorite CDs. Believe me -- nothing (most nothing) your'e hearing is original when it comes to panning, so you won't be stealing anything. Bodhisan

Doc, I love it. I know most drummers would scoff at a multi-patterned set, but the idea is something I've thought about before. Thanks, again. Bodhisan

Try moving the mike a couple feet above. I had the same problem with a similar mike/mic. Bodhisan.

You'd be surprised at how often you can use the same word at the end of two successive lines. Most listeners don't care about rules -- or even notice. And it's not lazy, it just sometimes calls for it. Bodhisan

The Wall Street Journal "article" could have purely been a political in. Maybe not.... I wouldn't do it. There are many other options. My favorite Nashville pitch story? Some bastard used my return envelope to solicit his recording studio, and stuffed it so that I owed the postman...

I think Richard Buckner is rather unknown to the millions, yet an incredible writer. Bodhisan

I guess we can always use another "river" song. Are the children cryin', because there's no water, and are there no tears fallin' cause there's no water to drink to fluid their bodies? And just to ask, don't most people who drink from the land get it from wells? Unless, of course, you're...

Teenager of the Year -- one of the top ten albums of the frickin' century. Elvis Costello is quite prolific and a master of melody. Bpdjosam

The "New Vermin." Bodhisan

INDO, There are still labels who accept unsolicited CDs. Do an internet search for "Record Labels," and I know there's a service out there that not only has a huge catalogue of labels, but what type of music they "like," and whether they accept unsolicited CDs. Some of them merely want you to...

I have four people that I know will listen to my latest CD...my Mom, brother, sister, and old college friend. They're all free, by the way. Bodhisan

Flash, Nowhereradio.com is excellent. You need a place to put your tunes, and this is it. It's a great place to start. Another option is CDbaby.com, which charges a flat rate of $35 per CD. They then put up a little web page for you, and you pick up to four songs that they will upload for...

JDub, I don't have one, but have been told by someone I trust that the Mia is a good soundcard, and not that expensive at around $200. Recording techniques: Since I don't know what type of music you're doing, it would be hard to give you tips; however, assuming you're going to be recording...

Doc, You make perfectly-good sense and raise good points. I, too, was wondering about the stability of a floor tom while inhaling an excited kick. And, too, what's 3-4" by getting an actual bass drum? Plus, with a bass, I'd have the attachments to tack on a cowbell or the like...this is...

I am so strapped for space. My "studio" is approximately 10" x 8". And that ain't gonna change...for years, anyway. I have a snare and a hi hat, and would like your professional opinions (I am not a drummer by trade, but can keep a beat) on the likelihood of getting a floor tom and making my...

I use the filter that came with the C1, and sing about 8-10" away from it. I can't tell a difference when I take it off or leave it on. Other ears might, though. Bodhisan

DavidK, Thank you -- coincidentally, I was looking in another category and saw where Gidge, the man who is everywhere with good advice about everything (even though he called me a nasty name once upon a time), had suggested this to another forumite. 'Preciate it. I'm already in the process...

I'm on Compuserve (and AOL for a few free months), and even though I can download an entire song, it will only play for 20 seconds.... Would you all please direct me to the best place I can get a site merely to upload songs? Thanks. Bodhisan
