By Peter S. Smith Unfortunately, if you're not a billionaire, and maybe even so, you still have to get out of bed in the morning and start your day. This can be either a pleasant experience or not, depending solely on the thing that will awaken you. A rough buzzer can be something that can make you want to keep staying in bed, while a song that you like on the radio can really jumpstart   your day. A good start in the morning is really important, since, statistically, it will define how you will feel during the day. As said before, a good song on the radio is a lot more pleasant than a rough buzz. However, the chances that a song you like will play when you wake up are really slim, and a song that you don't like will have the same frustrating effect as the buzzer. A good option would be to program what song you want to play when you wake up. For those of you that like to hear a certain song when you wake up, then the answer is simple: just buy a CD alarm c...

By James Preston Ringtones are very popular. Just by walking through a store you can hear a variety of different ringtones that are out there. Phones usually come with a small sample of different ones, but they are always boring and half the world probably uses them. That is why you want to be unique and have brand new ringtones that nobody else has. You can choose from several different options when it comes to getting different and unique ringtones.

Fortunately, this choice is easier, cheaper, more fun, more unique, and the best option available. If you really want to personalize y...

By Chris JW Adams When choosing music software from the array of computer music resources available there are two programs that stand out and have become the industry standard. These are Cubase and cakewalk. I prefer Cubase but this is because I have always used Cubase and before Cubase it was pro24, things have come along way since pro24 I can tell you. Either of these music software programs will be more than enough for any music recording project, it is important to realise though that the results using this software will only be as good as the soundcard you have installed on your system. The soundcard is the hub of your recording setup. You need to check the spec of any soundcard you are thinking of using. There are a lot to choose from as the computer music resources are ever growing. You will be looking for a soundcard that has a very low noise to signal ratio and a full band width 20hz-20khz. A sampling rate of 44.1 or greater and 16 bit or greater. Also you ...
