  1. <spoiler alert: I was a decades-deep SC user, and I dropped them two years ago> Regardless of any comfort issues you may have with login/authentication things, you should consider dropping them anyway. 1) filled with fake bots that "love" your tunes. Immediately after you post them. 2) The cases where bad actors downloaded a indie group's tunes, and re-uploaded them under the BA's own name, got some streaming royalties? and established copywrite on them. That's fraud and theft. 3) last I heard, the only reason SC is still solvent is they rely on venture capital loans. So it's not "by musicians, for musicians" at all. Expect to be preyed upon and treated like sheep. 4) if you are using it as an upload site for demos or sharing, it's better and cheaper to roll your own website. Bandzoogle or equivalent, and share your links to your tunes here or on social media as much as you want. 5) SC "pro" is like $160 a year. Fun fact: when I finally did not renew, they kept "autorenew" charging my credit card. So I emailed their billing tech support, several times, initially no response. Finally a bot email: "thank you for your concern, we'll examine the billing and get back to you" . . Months go by, no follow up from SC. I finally turned the matter over to my CC company, who eventually reversed the charge. Took me a year to get my $160 back 6) if your primary utility for it is an audio storage system, better to create a YouTube account. . . SC could die tomorrow, but YouTube seems to be as futureproof as
  2. Bummer Andy. Sounds like it's a bit past silica packets. Best of luck!
  3. I've had this done. Very unlikely to hear anything immediately afterwards. For the next few weeks, it will feel as though he were in a head-on car crash and his chest was impaled by the steering wheel. Weight restrictions, can't lift anything. But it gets better. Hopefully he brought his laptop into the hospital so he can still drop some bangers. Songs, that is, not sausages.
  4. I look forward to a healthy Wookiee vigorously banning me for the first time ever, when I finally unleash my full beast mode of political and religious hot takes. Thank you, in advance, for your service! May your surgeons be competent and may your insurance system be better than mine.
  5. This was a wonderful surprise in my morning! Great song idea, and your instrumentation is credible. The lyrics are nicely elevated above the usual clichés. Very well done. For me, I got zero motown and 100% 70's James Taylor! ☺️ You might cut the end solos a bit to bring the vocals back in one more stanza at the end. Fade out, some girls ooooooh-waaahing, you know, proper 1974. Loved it.

    I liked it best of all for the varied tonal palette, and the "Pink Gabriel" vibe. The chorus hits in a good way, very catchy. I wonder if your guitar lead noodle in the chorus might mask the chorus vocals a bit? Might be worth a check. You might also be prepared to explain to the kids what "writing letters" was. 🙄 Excellent tune and a polished production!
  7. I think TT should get on the Jam Points bandwagon as well.
  8. @Wookiee I hope you sail through your procedure. Thank you for your forum contributions, and particularly the excellent space oddesey tunes from those lovely synths! Sending good thoughts your way.
  9. Does the Coolio view of all the instances at once work on an older computer/graphic card? My 2013 windows beast doesn't have Open GL or some such thing, so some modern plugs can't gui with it. Anyone install proq 4 on a really old windows computer?
  10. If i install 4, does it overwrite 3? Can I still use 3? Will my old projects with 3 still show 3 and be ok?
  11. That seems like a lot of bother, just to replace the blinker fluid.
  12. If you want to outsource your creative impetus, in a "priming the pump" kind of way, any of these might serve!
