Frequently asked questions
I would love for that to happen. Adults only, please. Enter a greeting or question in the chat box. If I am at my computer, I should hear you, and I will respond.
I am the only person at Musix4me LLC, but I will try to respond to any chat requests during my work hours. I want to be able to answer your questions! If I cannot get to your request within 5 to 10 minutes, please use the Contact form at the bottom of the site.
I often run errands (I watch over my Downs brother) from 11:00 to 11:30 AM Eastern (USA) and odd Dr. appointments. I am usually at my computer, entering music or updating the site, from 9:00 AM until 6:00 PM Eastern (USA) or later.
It is not unheardof to chat with me at any hour of the day.
I hope to chat with you soon!
Yes, you may request practice tracks from the accompaniments. Please contact us using the form available at the bottom of each page to discuss your specific requirements. Currently, we do not charge a fee for this service unless there is a significant volume of requests or other business demands. In such cases, the fee would likely be $1.99.
No, we specialize in public domain music. For current hits or popular radio songs, we recommend exploring platforms like Tomplay. However, if you discover older songs in the public domain, we would be happy to create accompaniments for you. Simply provide a link to the public domain work. Additionally, if you own the music and would like us to create an accompaniment, we can assist with any piece you make available to us.
All accompaniments available for download from our store are free of charge. Generally, we do not impose fees for adjustments due to the limited number of requests we receive. While our initial intended price for adjustments was $1.99 per set, we currently do not plan to charge for any work related to the Musix4me project unless there is a significant increase in demand.
When you purchase an accompaniment, you will receive a link to download a ZIP file containing the tracks and/or sheet music (if in the public domain) from our servers. Any personalized or additional files will be added to a shared Google Drive folder created specifically for you. This folder will be accessible only to you and us. If you would like to see an example of how the Google Drive sharing works, feel free to explore our publicly shared Google Drive folder, where you can download available resources.
I would recommend three ways to stay updated. This is in the order of effectiveness, but you might also consider what method works best for you.
1. Subscribe to my channel on YouTube.(https://www.youtube.com/@Musix4me-Clarinet) All work appears here first and is added to the store shortly after.
2. Subscribe to my Monthly Newsletter. Sometimes I lose track of time, so it could be more than a month.
3. Visit my Blog.(https://www.musix4me.org/blog) Along with some background posts on composers or works, I will also put the Newsletter list on the Blog.
Great question! The first thing to understand about your set of adjustments is that they will only be derived from works that you have acquired from Musix4me. This is because these are the only works that I have the notation for and can adjust completely.
Follow these steps to get the adjustments you need.
1. Listen to your accompaniment with your notation in front of you and make as many detailed notes about changes as you'd like.
1. These can be anything from simple tempo changes, pauses, or dynamics to detailed rubatos and even pitch or octave changes. Nearly anything is adjustable!
2. Be sure to be clear by referencing measure or bar numbers, rehearsal marks, and even beats if needed. For example, "After rehearsal F, the 5th measure, after the 3rd beat, put a 2 beat cesura."
3. Use tempo markings appropriate to the time signature. For example, in time signatures like 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, C, etc., you could say "quarter note equals 68". For 3/8, 6/8, 9/8, or 12/8, etc., say "eighth note equals 80" or "dotted quarter = 76". For 2/2, 3/2, 4/2, or ¢, you might say, "half note = 120".
2. Contact me with the email that you registered with on the site. I need this email address to confirm that you made the purchase.
1. Send me any adjustments that you decided on.
3. I will create a shared folder with you and will place the new, adjusted MP3 file there for you to download. But that's not all!
1. I can email it to you if the attachment is not over 25MB or else GMail stores the file and changes it to a Google Drive link. Then we are back to the original scenario above.
4. Listen to the new accompaniment and repeat steps 1 and 2 until you are completely satisfied with the result.
Currently, we do not charge for our services, so refunds are not applicable. In the future, if we begin charging for our work, refunds will not be possible due to the nature of digital file exchanges. Once a digital file is sent, we cannot control its use, and it would be unfair to issue refunds while the work remains in the recipient's possession. Therefore, we kindly ask for your understanding regarding this policy.
