Ringtone Streamer Software Stutters

We planned to post the announcement of our entry into the Ringtone Market yesterday but the software we use to produce the streaming pages took a turn for the worse. As far as we can see it has taken it into its code to playback in half the time and at a comensuratly raised frequency - not quite Pinky and Perky but heading that way.

Existing streams are still OK but recording attemps yesterday all met with the same fate. So the trouble ticket has gone in and we await the response and the world must wait a little longer for our distinctively tasteful ringtones.

In the mean time we'll get on and load the products into BitPass.

Worldwide audience

In the last month Download2MP3 was reached from 169 countries with the remaining gaps being a few countries in North Africa. These days most visits are going direct to one of the big name composer pages although the ragtime category is holding it's own. The last twelve months or so have been a dry patch interms of producing more recordings but I'm pleased to report that the technical issues which been related to various software upgrades. I have been using Cubase for at least 25 years not on an Atari but an Acorn with an external roaland Sound Canvas synthesiser which was purchased in London's Tin Pan Alley. Some of the steps that have got us to 10.5 have been very disconcerting but the truth is that there is nothing to campare with it for the work that I do. I have also acquired some exciting new instruments in the last few months to augment the stalwarts which saw this site get underway. So the Covid19 Lockdown is giving me the time to produce more recordings wh...

Carl Maria von Weber MP3s

Weber is particularly well known for his meliflouous clarinet concerto and we are lucky enough to be able to offer 9 minute of the Andante rendered on marimba, xylophone and steel drums. The marimba does a good job on the clarinet part but in some respects the drums steal the show - the sunny Caribbean sound just makes you want to smile and so the lofi clip from this piece is today's streaming sample . The real discovery for us however was the Rondo Briliante which truly lives up to its name. We have rendered it on harp, vibes and steel drums which is particularly effective on the long rippling runs. For the time being you will have to visit our website www.download2mp3.com/schumann_etc.htm to hear the clip from this one.
