BUT, Diki is still correct, in that if you post a member performance on THIS board (which, let's face it, is comprised mainly of musicians), you ARE going to get comments and opinions about it. It goes with the territory, and to me, that's okay.

I agree, Chas. I guess the way I look at it, though is from a somewhat different perspective. Years ago, when I first came here, when someone posted a song there was constructive criticism from the vast majority of the forum members. For example, they would post information pertaining to the balance, timing, selection of instruments(s)/voice(s), layering, effects, vocals, etc... They would provide advice on how to improve those aspects of the song and steps that could easily be utilized to facilitate the changes.

Sure there were some negative comments, but the person posting them would usually provide the technical expertise so all forum members could benefit. NO ONE, at least to my recollection, ever said this song sucks, or it was so bad I couldn't listen to the entire song.

I'm confident that the level of technical expertise on this forum is extremely high, higher perhaps than most. In the past, a lot of forum members came here to learn from the pros. I hope that trend will continue, and I really appreciate your post above.

Thanks,

Gary
