Thread: music clips

does anyone know how to post music clips onto sites, and what program is best to convert the files to mp3's?

i'm a musician who is trying to attach portions of songs from my cd to a music page..

The best thing for you to do is upload them to the server. And create a a download link that says .....

ClicK Here To Listen (or something along those lines)

Hyperlink the above to your mp3 .....

excuse my ignorance, i have no idea how to upload them to the server, or what to use as the address to link from my website to the server...

ok..one step at a time

1) Click on the link below to download ws ftp.

2)use ws ftp to upload your mp3's into your public_html folder

3) lets say you have a mp3 called "sacrifice" that you uploaded to your public_html folder

4) you would hyperlink the "Click Here" to the below

http://www.dreamcoatsounds.com/sacrifice.ext

5) replace the above .ext with the format extenstion that you are using

In my personal opinion you should zip all your mp3's. it makes for a much faster download.

thanks *****, it all works fine...if anyone else wants to clip parts of a song to post, i found a program called word pad that allows you to do that...it doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but it also lets you convert files to mp3's with great ease..
