FiXT Remix

Hey everyone!

I just did something very silly. I was trying to be a good samaritan and help clean up some duplicated comments on a post here on the site...but instead of getting our actual 'web' guy to do it I figured I could handle it by myself. Well...I broke the entire comments system. You may have noticed that all comments on the entire site disappeared this afternoon. As you can imagine, my heart sunk and I immediately called up the site coder asking for help! Luckily the site was down only about 3 minutes and he had a backup of the comments database back online. So the Comments system is FIXT (fixed)! However, we did lose the most recent comments that had been posted since the backup. So, please accept my personal apology if your comment was lost! Fortunately, we have a great team and system in place to minimize these types of occurrences.

So if you left a recent comment and it's not on the site currently - please repost them while they may still be fresh in your mind!

Please give John Parks our web coder extraordinaire a thank you for getting everything FiXT!

Sincerely,
James Rhodes
FiXT

UPDATED: Thanks to eveyone who's been commenting. We'll be kicking off some new Tips, Tricks & Tutorial posts geared at some of the questions/comments and feedback you guys have left here. If you have posted yet, jump on in!

To all FiXT Remixers, Artists, Producers & DJ's - We want to hear from you! We're preparing to launch a regular news/blog column here on the site for Studio and Music Business "Tips, Tricks and Techniques" from a "Pro Team" of analysts, artists, execs, software creators and product reps. We want to know what software and hardware our community is actually using on a day to day basis and what problems/questions you may have.

What products are you guys passionate about? What do you hate? What bugs are annoying you in getting your work done? What would help you reach the next level in your career? New gear? Artist accommodation pricing? Promotion? What praise or rant do you have on the music industry or specific companies? Call out the good, the bad and the ugly. We want to shed light on and debunk some myths, call out some companies to fix what isn't working and ultimately empower you with more tools and abilities to create a higher form of art so you can reach success in your career.
 

The door is open - throw in your 2 cents...

(Oh - and we'll be announcing our "Pro Team" soon)
