Updated the mp3 with Henry's performance. If anyone's interested, he didn't listen to the mp3 render first 😄 Henry = 🔥

Hello, I recently finished a piece, Introduction and Waltz, and am wondering if the score is MOLA ready. I'm submitting to a competition thats due on the 10th (parts are not required til a later date). Thanks a lot and feel free to also listen and give feedback!

Hello! Here's a funeral march type piece. Form and harmony are very static and simple, in Fm with an A | A1 | A2 form. Hope you enjoy, and as always, any comments are welcome 🙂

LoL I am not familiar with idioms at all and thought you guys are talking about Fifty Shades of Grey! Henry

Hello everyone, Earlier today, I was syncing my audio to my tablet, and I realized there was a lot of music organization that I can do better. Thus, I want to start this discussion for us to share ideas regarding this topic. Basically, what I want answered (you can include other ideas I didn’t come up in my list): 1) What metadata (album, track number, title, etc.) scheme do you use for your final recordings? 2) What is your file-folder hierarchy? (E.g. all versions and editions of a composition in one folder, or one folder for each version/edition) 3) Where do you keep backups of your project files/folders? (E.g. Google Drive, USB flash drive, external hard drive) 4) This one is slightly off-topic, but how do you distribute or publish your music recordings for others to listen, buy, or otherwise know about? (E.g. Bandcamp, Patreon, physical CDs, YouTube [of course, but I wanted to include it anyway], official homepage, live performances) ——My take—— I’ll keep this relatively short as a jumping-off point: I add metadata with Audacity and cover all the default categories (Album Name, Genre, Comments, etc.), the details based on when I completed a certain edition of a composition or make a variant (e.g. violin and piano vs. string orchestra). My hierarchy I put the album folders on top, then add subfolders based on work and variants, also having an “actives” folder for music I’m currently working on. My backups I keep in Google Drive and a few external hard drives and flash drives. And lastly, I publish on YouTube (of course), but have hopes of making pretty-looking audio CDs and performing live on an occasional basis. Phew, I’m done! Now you explain your music organization workflows.

Hi @Frank Normandy! Like you I use my iPad for composing and use Google Drive for backing up the files. I used to use USB too but now I have neither computers nor notebooks so I stop using it. I add dates and versions of each recordings/versions/drafts of each piece. I actually learn this from my bitch ex-boss. First under "Composition", then genre like "Piano Music" and "Chamber music", then each work, then each movement. I put all versions and edititons under the same folder. Only publish here and on YT.

"3. If we decide to regulate AI music, how should we detect it?" This could probably be discussed further, there seems to be a myriad of options, and maybe more than one can work
