| Thinking of supporting SMC? It'd be greatly appreciated. |
I, along with my webmasters and artists have spent countless hours over the many years releasing free audio (don't worry, there's PLENTY to come in 2007), including numerous requests from you, the public. I've released quite a few soundtracks, with tens to come in the coming months.
All I ask is that if you visit SMC and download from it regularly, to please make a donation (if you can afford it). |
SMC makes a big loss for me personally, with such SMC-related purchases in the last few years as:
- new headphones ($150)
- a new mixer ($150)
- a pro sound card ($250)
- countless cables/misc. stuff ($300+)
- sound modules ($2000) |
| As you can see, for a student-come-job-seeker-come-newlywed, that's hard to sustain, in addition to the unpaid hard work I put into SMC regularly, such as: |
- countless time spent on recording/editing MIDI files from games or extracting them, and then mixing/recording them digitally
- tracking down/liasoning with old composers to secure any audio (especially from Sierra's digital games where the music was downsampled) where possible (I've got some GOOD stuff so far ), and interviews
- working with my webmaster Bountice and various artists to ensure SMC has a webpage that is vibrant and updated, and soundtracks have quality CD art
- administrating the SMC forums and ensuring all members have a reply to their post within 48 hours, and providing a very high level of public information about what SMC's working on, and other efforts I've been achieving (like the other points above)
- constant reviewing of the above
- and so on. |
| Your donation will go towards ensuring SMC can keep the above a reality. And also, keeping its' equipment at a working and quality level (it's not easy with the amount of equipment I have!). |
| Any amount is appreciated. You can make a donation quickly and easily through PayPal. PayPal is a free service that allows you to send money over the internet. It only takes a few minutes and can even earn you $5 just for signing up. |
Regards, and thanks for helping to keep the music alive!
