Is the website fubar to MP3 downloads?

Post by rooster »

:twisted: OK, I am trying to download a 2.61 mb MP3 file - well within the site's data limits. What I am told is that the "file is empty".

Is there a problem here that I am missing on my part? I think that 5mb is the limit for an MP3? Right? Have I created a file that cannot be read by the site? Man, this is stupid that I cannot figure this out.

Could someone post an MP3 and tell me if it is do-able? I am so twisted here thinking that my recording software is spitting out a bad product. Arrgggg!!!!!!!!! :evil:

RJ recently posted an MP3 on the rockstar thread. It should be ok.

Thanks, fishy. Hmm. I am still denied, however....

I think it is a limit of the software. I have raised the limit on uploads three or four times and regardless of the setting, the upload limit seems to be about 2 MB. :?

Allyn and Fishy - HMM. OK, I will try a 2 mb sample.

What I don't understand is this: Does this concern only the soundbite files? I ask this because it seems to me that I am seeing larger picture files than 2mb. ??

The weirdest thing is that the download/upload process tells me that my MP3 file is EMPTY!! WTF?

I sent the clip over to RJ, BTW, and I think he is going to try it on his end when he gets a chance, since he seems to be downloading without a problem. But I still could have a problem on this end, I just don't know. Its frustrating. :x

Fishy - That amp sounds very right - has to be a 4/12? Yeah, I hear it asking to be turned up. 8)

Thanks rooster, took me a long time to get where I am with it but I have enjoyed the experience and always learning something new along the way.
Its a ported (Dumble style) 1x12 with a Scumback M75 in it. The guitar was dialed down quite a lot on the neck pickup. really like the Scumback.

Still trying to get a gainy clip which represents the amp well.
