Today was a solid day of sampling. I recorded multisamples of two Roland synthesizers - the JD-990 and the D-550, using up about 8 gigabytes of pre-edit drive space. Since Freewavesamples.com already seems to be getting a good amount of traffic, it makes sense to pursue building it up.
While the sample trigger/recorder was running I [...]

I’ve finished setting up the basic design of freewavesamples.com today. It’s a site where people can download free .wav samples to use in music projects or in anything else where they would want or need sounds. I’ve been building the site for about a week and a half and was surprised today to find that [...]

It looks like APW is now live on the Genre Mall. I’ve created a couple of banners, nothing special, but at least I have them now.
I spent much of the day figuring out some things about Drupal. I know a heckuva lot more about the ecommerce module, custom views, and I can do some neat [...]

Today I spent a while looking for distributors for All Possible Worlds. I have a package going out to Ubiquity Distributors tomorrow, will be listed at the Genre Mall shortly, have an info request in to Disticor, have the magazine listed on Amazon now (through Suzanne’s merchant account), and have an info packet printed [...]

I’ve found that there are some pretty handy educational podcasts available. “Drive It - Convert It” gives a lot of great information about search engine optimization, site tuning, and marketing strategies for a website. I have a huge pile of casts downloaded now and I’m sure I’ll mention any of them that are [...]

OK, so the previous post was actually written yesterday but I forgot to hit “publish” so it sat in the “drafts” box for a day. That’s one of the perils of working until I’m too tired to work anymore.
I signed up for Yahoo advertising to collect the $50 credit from my ISP and started [...]

I’ve been busting my butt as much as possible over the past couple days. I think I nearly shattered the thing.
On fictionclassics, I added The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. It’s kind of to the point where I just space out and edit and I don’t notice the [...]

I went to the place I refer to as “that place I don’t work at anymore but they don’t realize it yet” today. It was emotionally and physically draining. Sure, the place issues paychecks, but I just don’t have time to go there. So many more important things to do… I didn’t [...]

I found and fixed an annoying bug with AlgoRhythmia 3 today. It’s the sort of thing that a user probably would have told me about if I had made contact information easier to find on the Zeta Centauri website. It’s another reminder that you never can test software too thoroughly. I posted [...]

Today was a fairly productive day. I added a drum machine section to soundprogramming.net and ended up adding more than 50 manuals. I also posted “Animal Farm” on fictionclassics.com.
I was checking out the upcoming Warhammer Online game from EA Mythic (http://www.warhammeronline.com) and decided that creating a fansite might be a good idea. [...]
