Database Database Database
Though this might be of minor interest:
Working on a Data-Base of all of my recorded works – and this is a lot!
Putting it all digital – from old Tapes – with Categories, Buzzwords, Dates, Actors and so – this is hard work!
It took a some time to find a program for this – and now it is:
MediaMonkey
For PC-Users this seems to be the best one. Tagging is easy, converting is in, burning too – autoupdate of chosen folders easygo. It also syncs to Apple appliances and other Smartphones.
So I chose this for the composer’s database – as there was no other solution around.
The workflow is:
Record in DAW with some helperPlugins to optimise the audio -> remaster in Adobe Audition (Noise Reduction) -> render to wav or mp3 -> Retag it in MediaMonkey.
To the composers with lots of work on the harddrive:
Which program do you use to archive your work?
