Use a file transfer site (e.g.: file bin) to transfer the original wav files of the music you have recorded. Then tell it what you want it to do. For me, I told it to balance the volume levels, add some reverb, and to correct minor note and rhythm errors.
I doubt it is anywhere near as good if you are trying to make something from just a prompt alone.

Thank you. I post single take stuff all the time. These more complete arrangements take a LOT more time and I don't have much to use. But I have more music in the works, whenever I can get around to it. This one turned around quickly because my grandmother's health made it an immediate priority.
I am decided that my song "Grandfather's Wars" will get this treatment next.

It is in progress now, but I am putting together a song from a poem written by my grandmother. She is not doing well and I am rushing production to hopefully have her hear it before she is gone. Wish me luck, and I hope you like it.
This is what I was working on in the livestream, so thank you @npub13c0…e8s8 and @npub1r5dgptaf4tm22jrjrkqmq5s7vkdgymk3xanfpzkcs8zapwex6deq59ch0g for tuning into the livestream despite not being able to hear most of it.

Honestly, that's fair if I am out producing everyone else on the platform. At a certain point, especially for certain people, enough is enough.
Makes me really want more creators on here though. I am only putting out 3-5 videos a week. That's on pace with most youtubers. I shouldn't be out-producing all of nostr by myself so consistently.

I looked into suno. It is ridiculously kyc. Granted, now that I have nostr-based email addresses to connect it to, maybe it is worth a revisit.
I wouldn't use it for random covers like this though. I would use it for my original songs. Yes, I have a few of those.

I don't smoke, but I couldn't get this song out of my head because the bass slaps and I liked the idea of using the polyphonic technique for the melody. And then I thought "hey, at least @npub1q6p…0kxr would appreciate it". So here it is: burning.

I'm mostly doing a lot of it by vibes, so I am certain I have been subconsciously gravitating towards certain standard patterns for the music, especially considering how much of it is freestyled.

okay. I understand now.
I didn't actually pull out a synth or piano to check my sound ratios before. Now I am curious to throw an AI at my reporitoire and see if the 4th drop is my standard pattern for bass notes or not.

That confirms my test. I posted this as a kind 1 note, NOT a kind 22.
The issue has been kind 22/71 short kinds specifically.

The cited "sites" are clients, and the people I @ mentioned are the devs. They have noted it.

2026-10-12 18:02:43 UTC

So, it is a kind 22 short with a text description. Apparently some clients aren't supporting the kind 22 embed and, therefore, only showing the text as a kind 1 post.
I think this confirms why this channel isn't being discovered. If most of my content is going out as descriptions of videos that no one sees, of course people aren't interested.

Non-amethyst users apparently can't see the video. Not sure why the disconnect.

So some clients show the video ( @nprofile…wywf but it doesn't appear on posterchan @nprofile…hn86 or t-bone @nprofile…xlfm after I reposted it. The text is there, but the short is not.
For reference, this is the short:

I had been using amethyst for shorts uploads, but I notice that it doesn't generate kind 1 notes with the short embedded. Good for a shorts feed, bad for discovery. And reposts carry the text, but NOT the video.

I don't know, honestly. I didn't even notice it until the @npub1cl0…v69f bot made a public post showing it. But no one besides the bot mentioned it to me, so there was no explanation. My best guess is that it was from the sheer volume of content and that he wasn't a fan of beatboxing... I don't have enough information to assume anything else.

(Reposting because it seems the audio was broken the first time)
This is only the first verse, but my loop pedal broke shortly after finishing this. This is an original song called "Away from Home" and it was written during what I think was the darkest period of my life.
2 full-time jobs, basically never seeing my kids for more than 30 minutes a day before they sleep 5 days a week, too exhausted to do anything with them during the other two days.
When I had a moment to think about my circumstance, this is what came to mind:
Home, Away from home
wearing on my weary soul
to reach the place
where I'll find peace
as they make sure
I'll never reach
So I must march with only memories
of laughter in my mind
'cause their machinations are designed
to drain me of my time
and my life
which they claim to own
so I'm still not home
(the other lyrics, not in the recording but to the same melody)
A land with grass
as far as I can gaze
where all my food
can freely graze
where I'll raise kids
who'll never need
to be unsure
of when they'll feed
but they want us to be reliant
'cause their power all relies
on us not being able to ensure
our needs for our own lives
so they restrict
what we can grow
so I'm still not home
Well I want kids
it's my destiny
it's why they'll strip
us of our seed
because a dream
that's all my own
might distract their
prized worker drone
after all, I might want to give my
family more of my time
but that would mean I'm less available
to slave away for dimes
so they restrict
whose seed can sow
so I'm still not home

This is what I hope I can do again someday when I can make enough money to have the time for it.
There are no instruments in this track at all. Every part is my voice and nothing but my voice, from the beat, to the "instruments" that are all done through overtone singing. It was done using a loop pedal. That loop pedal doesn't work anymore.
My current music format was largely my desperate attempt to compress all of this into a single take, and to be able to do it on the fly with whatever time available. I've definitely evolved as a musician for it, but I definitely miss the bigger arrangements too.

What is Jellyfin?

I think, at this rate, that I am going to be dramatically reducing the number of uploads I put on Normie tube. This morning's upload got 16 views since 10am my time. But it had 168% playthrough... Meaning that it was rewatched by nearly every person that found it, but youtube couldn't be bothered to show it to more people.
I understand that my content is super niche and not everyone's thing. But "people are watching this over and over" should tell the algo to show the video more if you are going to have an algo.
But it doesn't. I'm sick of wasting my breath on them. My only interest in YouTube at this point is pulling them over to nostr.
With that being said, does anyone have a suggestions for a client to advertise on my YouTube videos to pull them over here? #asknostr
My current videos have my @darkwisp qr code, but clearly that was an error because most of them can't even find me by that according to some of the users in my comments. I need a very reliable pipeline to feed them into without proselytizing nostr itself. They just need to login and see videos.

I feel validated in putting up my XMR payment target.

You can't. If I try to turn it on, it forces me right back to the login screen like it did when I first downloaded it.
Even if I could jailbreak it, at this point, it tells me they are liars and rugpulling like session chat did.

That is literally their android app, which required an account on setup, and then locked me out today with no notice.

AI to kick people from their accounts is the reason I DIDN'T use standard services like gmail. But I also need to be normie-reachable.

No notice was ever given about anything. And this is simply my music account. I beatbox. There is no reason to target this account.

My wife got those for my father in law. It wasn't as cool IRL as they appear in photos.

USA real location. Proton VPN doesn't give me a choice of location on the free model, so that's their fault not mine if some disconnect between the two caused this.

Nothing. I have received no contact, including on the proton email address the VPN was connected to, regarding any accusations of anything. Nothing but the standard email spam.

That isn't what locks you out of an account. And I didn't make any encryption claims, I claimed the factually proven and obvious that they just locked my account out of the VPN from the admin side.

Proton mail is a trap. This is their VPN by the way, the one I've been using for the past few months, just spontaneously locking me out for no reason. Nostr needs a real email system that ACTUALLY works and can converse with the conventional system without a mountain of secondary steps. I'm done with this garbage. https://blossom.primal.net/fab6d6b8ede881f61bb791ca1fab3d0c59e7fb538eacec2b2978c37592bbd4b0.jpg
