This is supposed to be a music production forum... Do you think I should start a MIXES forum where people can post their mixes. I can also change the music section to allow hot-linking to other sites... Please let me know...

I don't know whether there's enough traffic to warrant adding a forum... maybe just a name change to Music: Mixing, Production & Technology. Unless you think a dedicated mixes forum is necessary.

As for hotlinking... I've just been directing people to the url for the 'extra information' page. I figure it brings a bit of extra traffic to the site, as opposed to just direct linking to the file so people can right-click-save without even dropping in.

A mixes section could be cool, no need for people to go trawling through all of the current music section if they're just looking for a quick fix on what the locals are putting out.. It'll centralise things a lot and make it easier/faster for people to find stuff!

+ 100 Screwhead.

I wholeheartedly agree. It would be incredibly beneficial.

I'm with Fishead. Most people, I assume, are already used to looking for, and posting their mixes in this section, and this is one part of the website that probably gets as much traffic as the News Section. I can see your intentions, Noah, but adding a second section for music seems redundant.

I dunno, I think it would be a hell of a lot easier.. It's how it's done on most other music boards that I've seen.. Sure, as it is now you/anyone could go through the music section looking for mixes.. But why actually have to go looking for them and sort/trawl through every other post, when you can just have a section to click on that's got nothing BUT mixes?

It makes a lot more sense to me to have everything in it's own place for ease of use/finding..

screwhead for president of the rave... thing is we'd so end up with a mixes section thatd look like this: screwhead, screwhead, screwhead, host one, screwhead, sarcastic, screwhead, screwhead, bliss, host one, screwhead, fishead, screwhead, screwhead... and so forth

how about if a mp3 link is posted in a thread in the mixes forum, a little icon appears next to the thread so you dont have to actually open the thread to download it? that would make it a lot faster. Sometimes i just need music, not endless pages of Bliss saying he is better than everyone else

That could work but you'd have to create a script to add that icon next to the file in this section. And there are people who will link their mix to point to a page on their personal websites to increase traffic. In such cases, you'd get NO ICON and we'd be back to square 1.

I still think a section dedicated to JUST THAT would be a hell of a lot better.

People are so deathly afraid of change. We'd be ADDING another section, not reorganizing the entire music forum. :)

yeah.. Keep this section dedicated to what it actually says in the title: production and technology. Unless you're making every song in your mixes, mixes don't fall into the production category..

Well the script would have to only work if it is linked back to an mp3 file hosted on this server, and also, the mix would have to be posted in the first post of the thread. Or maybe there could be a box specially made to put your url, over the text box

i say keep it exactly as it is now, so people can still start threads n whatnot, even if a mix isnt technically production or wtv, but also have some sort of system seperate from the forum, where you can just see a list of all the mixes, kinda like looking at dj profiles or the user list or something...

How about this system : put all mixes in one section.

Everyone's coming up with fruity ways to separate mixes from regular threads in this section that requires extensive coding, recognition systems and complicated ways to post a mix that requires the poster to identify their mix properly so it's displayed accordingly on here.

Some peeps aren't smart enough to post their mix in THIS section instead of the General Discussions board, how are they going to manage posting their mixes HERE, using a special mix posting system created for THIS SECTION alone ?

Don't take this wrong but it sounds like a LOT of work for not much.

That is my 2 cents.

how about a special script that detects psytrance sets and not only does it delete the set but it bans the user and calls the cops right away?

How about simply a thread in this section dedicated to mixes that is stickied.
NO need for any special scripts, easy to use, can be done right away

then comments/people talking about the mixes they like/asking about tracklist questions/etc.. will get all jumbled up into a huge mess no one will want to read or go through..
