Re: and... another challenge (50 songs in 90 days)
I've written & produed (final masters) over 50 tracks & songs in about 6 month (autumn 2006 - spring 2007).11 of them found a deal through taxi in the meantime, 2 more songs are placed by myself on a album of gothic-rockers, release date is autumn 2007 (germany, switzerland, autriche, poland, u.k. etc.), another title was placed by myself for a popgroup in the U.K.it can be cool & challenging to work like that but believe me: you can't go on and on like that forever...
currently I'm taking time to learn new stuff and implement it right in new tracks. that doesn't produce the same quantity but is more fun and educational....just my experience with "produce amount X in time Y". I can imagine that such project is motivative for writer - so let's go for it if it feels right for you.cheers,martin

50 songs 90 days seems too long, and people would lose interest and forget about it. How about 50 songs in 10 daysrobbie tuckerwww.robbietucker.com

Re: and... another challenge (50 songs in 90 days)
I'm holding back till the approaching deadline gets my blood going. Not really, but I am managing to leap out behind the pack in a wonderfully even-paced start. I have set a tempo that will be easy to maintain. Too bad it is nonfunctional for the purpose.

I've got the basic themes of 4 short pieces in 6 days - I'm still struggling with my learning curve doing more "advanced" tasks, like better controlling the attributes of different VIs and editing different audio loops so they will work in a piece. Good challenge, Hummingbird - definitely a motivator!
