Just uploaded. Mostly shorter sounds, with 2 drone loops. Recorded with lots of different things -- Norns, Digitone, Yamaha S80, iPad apps, Guitar, pedals, looper.

Hope people find them useful/interesting!

soo, I can get into the correct folder via the google drive app & I can get your files into audio share, so off to a good start.

but something confusing:
if I play a file in the drive app... the file disappears?

so if my folder shows you multiples of the same BM3 loop...
then that is connected, drive would tell me „upload complete“ but show me an empty folder,
and if I exit/reenter/lather/rinse/repeat and finally find a file
guess what happens when I play it

Alrighty...got my sounds up. I didn't edit them, so apologies for the glunks and the glonks at the beginning of each track.

I have sounds recorded but don‘t have anything to stick the freaking usb cord into to get them off the h2

Will figure out & make new stuff, upload more later

This will absolutely not help either of you in any way, but I can very much so relate to this. I didn't really think I was going to be able to upload anything on time because my new computer doesn't have an SD card slot and I don't have the right USB cables to connect my H5 to my computer. Luckily, the previous owner of the H5 had swapped the SD card for an SD/microSD card adapter and I have a microSD card/USB adapter, so it worked out. Again, sorry, that doesn't actually help anyone

So, just to confirm, everyone has something submitted in their folders! yay team!

Is anyone expecting to add anything else? Say so now, so people can keep an eye out to grab it.

Turning thoughts to phase 2... final tracks assembled from other people's sounds should be done by Labour Day (which comes late this year, so there's a bit of extra time built into that.)

What else goes into an album? Maybe some cover art? moid contrinuted some on-point cover art last time 'round. Open for ideas for this one... and I did the rudimentary title layout on that, so anyone with fancy-schmancy graphic design skills can volunteer to outdo me.

Another idea I had: I did a basic l'il "here's-some-sky" video to go with my piece last time around (behold my local subway station!). And, all things being equal, I'd probably do something like that again. Unless... would anyone be innerested in doing a video swap? Like, I'd make a sky-themed video for your track, and you do one for mine?

Any other ideas/considerations in anyone's mind?

my videomaking skills are not so fresh as some years ago,, but since there's plenty of time I volunteer for the cover/artwork. Anyone got some specific ideas or should i just go with the flow?
