Here is another of my tunes generated using the Method Music software with the bits added :)
From the tests of the V2, I think it will be even better. Dave is currently working on things to better improve it. This is a short one (*glares at Dave again*), I am hoping to get the longer version of the music soon (please?)
Anyway, it is very frustrating to not be able to upload and share new sounds since they are not public yet my compilation is growing :) and 93% I like a lot. I like rock music that doesnt break my eardrums, that doesnt have a whiny voice with it and that let me enjoy either by just listening or dancing.
In developing software, silence does not necessarily mean - a stop to an activity. Our silence is NOT inactivity. In our little geeky corner buzzes our computers and new music being created and played. I can't share the new music yet, but to me it sounds like a connection of generations type of sound. I both makes you relax yet you want to tap your feet because your body also want to dance.
Patience, it seems is a virtue we hope you'd nurture here because we believe the wait will be worth it. It is not our intention to put something up which is half done or full of bugs.
Just keep a tab, we'll get there!

A week after the Lifehouse Method opened, there are already thousands of signed-in sitters and a couple of thousand of tunes produced. I am surprised at how well this software was made, it didn't crash even after today's strain of 380% of processing power at work making tunes, putting some sitters on the waiting list because of the demand! It was a real test of the software today and we are proud of its high marks :)
Though this is already launched for public use and that plan for subscription is in place, this is still an beta version. Continued development and research will make this even better. So, critics may love to cut this into pieces - one thing to remember is this amazing piece of software is still a baby and if developed properly could create wider range of tunes more to the wider publics liking.
I haven't played with it again for a while now, since I should give chance for others to enjoy the experience. Some are there to just to scorn at the novelty, criticize the tunes produced, etc. I am not biased and after 40+ tunes, I can really say it reflects your personality as sitter as well as your state of mind. Want to confirm it? I still have a possibility to create lots of tunes. Don't ask why I have it, my husband Dave have his reasons but he did give this lot so I can check for bugs, try the tunes, test the site, suggests ideas, criticize, swear at it and everything I do when testing (next to taking it apart and hitting it with a hammer). It is fun and I enjoy being useful and to help, even if Dave would say how much he wanted to tear me apart (if he can) with all my why, what and how questions. There is nothing better than a perfectly functioning software, this was written singlehandedly it boggles my mind why companies with bigger budget cannot create a perfect software with all their resources.
