Newsletter April 2010

Welcome to April's 2010 RecordProduction.com Newsletter

RP's site news

We've been really busy filming some great new producer videos and many of these are now here or will be uploaded over the next few weeks. See the feature 'stuff' for the details.

The headline news this month is that we had over 4.5 million hits last month and used up so much bandwidth we reached 99.9% of capacity. We have added an extra server to keep pace with the demand!

Special thanks to everyone that came to the Sean Genockey masterclass. After paying people to staff it and the studio time etc we were left with about five pounds which has gone in to the hard drive fund - we never have enough hard drives! The good news is that we will have a little of that footage up next month. Further masterclasses are in the planning stages.

Plans are now afoot for a long overdue trip to Nashville but if we can raise more funds we'd like to get over to LA, San Francisco and New York. If you're over there and would like us to come and feature you, or know someone who we should be featuring let us know! It's all free, but any donations, offers of accommodation, tickets or sponsorships are really welcome!

We have just heard that our forums / networking provider, Ning, will be introducing some new hefty charges. We are therefore working on bringing the forums, reviews, the blog and the site in to one amazing, err, 'thing'. This will take time but hopefully we will find a great way to enable you to add your own feature pages and have people better able to contact and colaborate with you. As the site is created in spare time it may take a while so any gifted designers out there are invited to help!

A few producers have mentioned that they've had quite a bit of work by being featured. If you have any stories about how we have helped you please let us know.

Thanks for visiting the site, please add a link on your own pages and tell your friends!
