Help me! (also known as calling all songwriters, musicians etc)
Okay.
I don't believe it. How could I be so stupid? I planned ahead, I did -- started in the beginning of October, as soon as I knew the date for the Middle School Fall Party. And then . . . Homework came along. And then . . . Time caught up to me. And now . . . I have one week- less, actually -- to finish writing, recording, and organizing some form of accompaniment to a song. And my deadline is Saturday. And I'm screwed, big time. So. It's a bit unusual for me to start a "help!" thread, but help is what I'm hoping for (depending on) and I thought you guys are generally fairly musical, or at least halfway intelligent. Which is better than what I am. I need help on the following: Recording tchniques (and computer equipment advice to do so). Advice on how to beat a synthesizer (or keyboard; whatever you call it) into submission. And eventually - think Thursday or Friday - critics. Anybody care to lend me a hand? And, oh, Eru, how in all of Arda could I be so stupid???!!!!!

I can be critical. I can't however, help with the whole beating thing. Machinary and i do not get on at all. If you need a critique though, there i can help.
Dunno, if you want to email me when you need help, feel free, my email is on my profile.

Hantalye.
Hey -- technologically-advanced folkies out there: However does one operate the percussion function on a Yamaha keyboard?

What model? There are many kinds of keyboards... some of them just have a button you push that switches an entire section of the keys into percussion instrument sounds. Others have a completely separate drumkit MIDI "voice" entirely.

Hey, Elfmaster? Would it be okay w/ you if I mailed you the accapella version first just to see what you thought?
How big of an attachment can your server recieve? I wish I knew, IronParrot. If I figure it out I'll post it.
