CD updates

I now have 9 of my albums available on CD, and I’m working on adding all the others which folks have voted for in the poll.

I definitely want to put Novembeat 2020 on CD but unfortunately that will require some extra process, as it has 29 tracks and Kunaki’s online tool only supports up to 25. There’s a workaround for that but unfortunately it will take some time to figure out how to actually do it suitably.

On that note: If anyone knows of any good DAO authoring tools, ideally which run on a Mac, please let me know! In the meantime, Kunaki does have a somewhat roundabout approach which involves me burning a CD-R and then ripping it back with their own software, but that’s… fraught, and I’m not sure I even have any viable CD-Rs anymore. (I somehow doubt the big cheap spindle I bought on clearance from CompUSA is still any good…)

Update: I ended up just doing it myself, and this functionality is now part of Bandcrash. Also my big cheap spindle was still good!

But anyway, there haven’t been a lot of responses on the poll and I’m holding out optimism for the idea that it’s just because people haven’t made up their mind yet and not that nobody wants to buy anything.
