  • Mix with non-destructive, real-time effects

  • Tap into a library of over 10,000 sounds

  • Access your mixes from anywhere with an internet connection

  • And much more


There are several other sites on the Net. Poke around and you’ll likely find a service

that’s just a right fit for you.


Non-Traditional Physical Releases
For the most part, if not the entire part, non-traditional music releases means digital re-


leases. But, it can also mean burning your own CDs. Let’s start with the latter.


Here’s a relatively simple idea: Write some songs, find a studio or place to record, re-
hearse, rehearse some more, do some production and mixing work, get the sound down
and make a master. Then what? How do you get your masterpiece into the fans hands?
One option is to make your own CDs. If you’re just making a few demos, you can
probably get by with a CD/DVD burner in your computer or a peripheral. Beyond that,
there are loads of CD duplication services online or even your local office supply store.
For example, Diskmakers.com offers a wide variety of packages such as their Working
Band Bundle at $1,229 USD. The bundled package includes (from their site):



  • 1,000 CDs in full-color four-panel Digipaks

  • 100 Download Cards

  • 100 11" x 17" posters
