If you’re looking to find the Groups visit The Wall and look at the widget (block) on the right-hand side and select a Group. They’re all still available and fully usable. I’ve merely been trying different configurations to see if when I cut back to a single wall, if it might result in the community more actively using the social walls. So far, it…Read More

The Cure is getting set to make their 2024 return official, teasing the arrival of the lead single from their forthcoming Songs of a Lost World — “Alone” — set to drop later this week.
After first sending postcards to fans featuring the date of November 1 noting what could only be the lead-up to the release of their first album in 16 years, The…Read More -
I’ve given advice to more than three dozen sample and plugin developers over two decades. I haven’t talked to any of them about joining yet. I wanted to wait until we were opened it to public registration next month. But the word is starting to get out. I can see that there’s an interest.
I was just wondering what everyone’s take is on…Read More

Peter’s a friend of two decades. I don’t know if, from a business perspective, IK would want him to invest too much time when the community is small, but I do think he’d like what we’re doing here. I know that Peter and I share the same ideals on how people should treat one another, I’ll contact him tomorrow. I would — just on a personal level…Read More

What are some of the things that most inspire you to play and/or write music?
4 Comments-
Simple. I turned 11 years old the day The Beatles landed in the USA for the first time (7 Feb 1964). I saw them on Ed Sullivan both times they appeared. That was all I needed even though I didn’t actually fully start until 3 years later when I got my first electric guitar (not bass) and met up with kid I went to school with in the 5th grade who…Read More

Beauty and some thoughts that are hard to speak. It’s basically necessity for expression. Music gives me all the liberty that I need 😀
I love look at the sky and somehow I fell connected.

When I heard Appetite for Destruction it was the most amazing thing I have ever heard.
Still, I think like Patrick, it’s something inside that drives me to do it (play guitar or sing).

How would you name the social media accounts for a music project, when the 1:1 version is already taken? Would you go with:
– project_official
– project_band
– project_musicor something else? This is currently more of a solo effort, though any live performances would require a band. I’m personally leaning towards the project_music, but…Read More

I would tend to go with ProjectOfficial or project-official next.
I would not want to use the _ character as users tend to not remember that and there may be times you’re telling people and they’re not reading something and there’s also the fact that some people may see something and not do it immediately and rely on memory. There’s been a lot…Read More

Got it, no pressing enter while typing without pressing shift, too. And edit doesn’t work on Firefox, it seems.
Anyway, like I was saying, I was focusing more on the suffix, but I suppose I should consider the separator, too. The “official” feels like something that big names use when there are dozens of unofficial accounts. It also feels like I…Read More

Generally they say to avoid the underscore, and also the dot. RealProject would be another good alternative. Only 4 extra characters, looks professional and generic if Project switches to something else so it will still work. Character length is an issue on some platforms, like Twitter allows only 16, if your like say ProjectSeven that’s already…Read More

I wanted to take some time out to show my appreciation and acknowledge some of the members of the community who have pitched in and epitomized the values I had envisioned for this community, a place committed to being the friendliest, most helpful and welcoming community of its kind.
When my days at Cakewalk Forum came to an end, I was soon…Read More

Have you experienced this ZEN state after practicing your instrument for like more than 20/30 minutes, so focused, non stop?
I love it and at some point experiencing it, it’s like you don’t exist anymore (scary thought but it’s awesome).3 Comments-
I’ve felt that experience more when playing with other musicians. While I have been doing multitrack recordings since I was a kid, playing alone never came close to the experience of playing with other musicians. I think the closest I’ve come since tendonitis stopped my ability to play with other musicians — as I often can’t get through a minute…Read More

Aw, well, this feeling I have experienced is out of this world. Focusing on a riff for like 20/30 minutes without thinking is awesome. You don’t even think if you are doing it right or wrong, what finger goes to what fret, if you press it hard or soft. You just play and play and play. One of the best feelings I have experienced. Also, it motivates…Read More

Happy birthday to my favorite developer and sincerely one of the best human beings you could find on this planet, @gregjazz Greg was the person who encouraged me to attempt to play again around 3 years ago during the pandemic — around 20 years since I left music behind due to an injury causing lifelong tendonitis that makes playing drums even…Read More

It may come as a shock, but Dave Grohl cites Andrew Gold as one of his all-time favorite songwriters, responsible for what he considers the greatest songs ever written.

New stuff going on! Time to leave my stamp on the wall
Also been loving this update that we can have a wider variety of emojis (which I <3)1 Comment-
Thanks for the feedback!
We can thank @fleer for the fact that we’re using these emoji reactions. I originally used an up and down voting system and Fleer made the case for having these kind of reaction emojis and I quickly realized that he was right. I then interviewed each member of my family — except our cat — and everyone agreed that…Read More

As the early adopters AKA beta testers of LinkedMusicians,, you’re seeing the site evolve pretty quickly as I’m testing what engages you and what doesn’t.
I knew when setting this site up that the forum would be easy for everyone to adjust to and the social media walls / GROUPS would take more time. All along, I had this one recurring thought:…Read More

This should be a sticky post😎

We really should embrace the whole Cakewalk Forum banning any references to LinkedMusicians while allowing people to post links to every KVR, Gearspace, VI Control — and a bunch of affiliate marketing links. I thought BandLab was out of Singapore. I guess they must have relocated to North Korea. It takes some truly awful decision-making to end up…Read More

I was talking with a friend and talked about LinkedMusicians. He asked for a clarification on what I meant by “it’s an online community of musicians.” I explained, it’s basically Facebook for musicians with forums focused on sharing deals, tutorials, documentaries, gear and music production. How would you describe it?

I am all for it. I can only see benefits, especially if they are knowledgeable in the product. Of course salesman would not be the same. I thought Peter of IK does a great job on other forums.
