Yeah totally. I'm also very happy with the number of active users too.

I was asking for 200 members by tonight, and it looks like we will get there!

I just hope that people can spread the word to friends and other forums. I can't personally go around to every forum, but if others can, it will be a great thing.

'press release' to computer music ???

slainte ;) rob

Actually, sxub and I had thought about getting the word to them. Do you know how to go about that? I've never done a press release, but that would be the ULTIMATE exposure. I was going to post in their forums, but if I could get a more official bit of help, that would be great.

Any idea of how to go about that?

... hes the editor of CM and is a KVR member ... write up a simple press release and fire it off to him ... mention the KVR link and he might well give you a little mention ... no guarantees of course but hes been pretty helpful in the past ...

At first, creating an account was telling me "Error:USER_ALREADY_EXISTS" and I was all set to start reporting this bug, but then I realized I didn't have the .com in my email address - oops.

I would help with the bandwidth of ConcertGrand but at some point I already downloaded it. Checking on this led me to a whole folder of downloaded samples that I hadn't looked at in at least a year. :? (Time to further refine my sample directory.)

But thanks for this. Very cool. I'll mention it in my blog, which I'm hoping to take out of beta by the end of the weekend. So you'll probably get another, oh, dozen or so in a bump. (That's a dozen over the next year.)

Oh, if anyone wants the Wusik D50 set, it will be open here for a while.

Thanks puffer! We'll take any members we can get. There will be more marketing of this, so I believe the numbers should do some jumping here and there.

Thanks a lot pHz for your help, and puffer for your recent involvement.

Lastnight was a very successful one, we transfered a lot of data (roughly 20gb) and that was with only 200 users. We are expecting to see a lot more as it gets a little more popular, I also feel that many users do not know bittorrent so we shall be adding some info about it all on the first post.

Re. press releases what about Sound on Sound??
Athlon 3800+ x2, 1 gig ram, 200gb SATA
Terratec 24/96 sound card, ATI all-in-wonder x600 graphics card, Windows XP Home SP2, Steinberg Cubase SX2, Reason 2.5

Post

Sure, but is there any contacts here who have any associations with any of the editors or people involved in sound on sound?

Post

To say that I'm happy with the results for the day is an understatement. There is alot more to come.

I have more stuff like the piano file that I will be adding, and if we can get stuff like that up, more people will come. Like you said, we already had a TON of transfer going on. And the server is doing fine, so we can go alot further then this.

I have some ideas of things for the site, but here is what we need right now. We need more donations of content. I hope this doesn't seem pushy. But it's true that the more stuff that is there, the more people will want to come back again.

Next, we need people to announce this on different forums. Or if you have a contact with a magazine or other publication, let us know.

We want to expand this site. Once we have more members, there are some exciting things we can do. Trust me, there are some cool possibilities. But we need to get members. So far, it's going beyond great. Let's keep it up!

Thanks to everyone who has joined!
