Hey Dan,

just thought of an idea that might be cool for the site. It would be cool if home recording people had a place to do online collaborations on the hrc where they could swap song files and idea's. I know the server space deal would be a lot to deal with, but the projects might be kind of cool. :) any thoughts?

Yes, I did implment a collaboration feature in HRC Pro. The server space is an issue for mp3 hosting and the collab feature (known as "The Virtual Studio") which is why I put it in the HRC Pro section. That way the people using the resources are the ones paying for them. It's the only fair way I could think of to do it.

When I have a stock hit it big and I become independently wealthy it will become part of the standard web site :-)

ahh, very cool. When I come across some funding myself I may have to check out the Pro section in that case. :) I have collaborated with a few people before I came to the HRC and found it is easiest if everyone has their own server space to host files on when they are doing the upload thing. I am not sure if I am supposed to mention this on the site as you actually offer hosting on the site, but there is a company called idyia that is out of Canada that has very cheap hosting for space online and cheap domain registration for anyone that wants to get their own. :)

I've just mainly been looking for some projects to get myself more adapt into mixing and mastering stuff lately as I've become pretty comfortable with the mic techniques and selection. :) Anyone out there have anything they need mixed or mastered that I could get some practice with? :D

an idea related to the chatroom thing (which i still always find empty): what if members could see who's online and send them an instant message through some HRC IM system? like, you can see a list of logged-in people and then click on them to send them a message.

HRP Pro also has am private messaging feature that works between all Pro members.

Showing who is in the chatroom...hmmmm...not bad...

dB, before you changed the site last time, you used to be able to see how many people were visiting and who was logged in at the bottom of the page. I always thought that was cool.

OK, chatroom peeps are listed out on the front page under the forum and chatroom links.

So, I DARE anyone to tell me HRC doesn't listen to it's members!

coolo, onfornately there are a few problems with that "whos online" thing.

1- to do it really cool, listing out how many members, visitors and WHICH members is an incredible amount of database I/O (input/output)

2- the session ID's required to do that screw with search engines and how they scan your site and index the pages.

fortunately, the chatroom works a little differently, just one quickly little db query.
