Music & Arts Links

Here are some of the online resources that I go to.  If you are interested in what’s going on in the world of worship, music, art and arts technology, then check some of these out.  If you have some great places to visit, I’d love to see you post some in your comments. We’ll continue to add things as they come to mind. Pastor Lorn

Sheet music resource, with musical examples, and arrangements for choir and orchestra. http://www.praisecharts.com/

This is the group that make sure the artists receive credit for writing the songs we sing in our churches.  Also has the largest database of worship songs out there.  We get a lot of our print music from their song select service. http://www.ccli.com/

My favorite periodical, with lots of artist interviews, and gear reviews. http://www.keyboardmag.com/

Another magazine, also a helpful place for gear reiviews. http://emusician.com/

This site has a large database of user reviews for all kinds of gear.  If you want to see what everyone is saying about an item you’ll find it here. http://harmony-central.com/

I’ve always had great results from Roland keyboards.  Last year I bought a Fantom G6, and still afraid of how much power it has. http://www.rolandus.com/

If you make music on a computer, this is a great place to find quality computer audio interfaces, and studio monitors.  I have a pair of the IE30 in ear monitors; they changed my life. http://www.m-audio.com/

This is my studio recording software, with lots of great synth plug-ins, 64 bit windows support.  Its amazing what you can record with this package. http://cakewalk.com/

Clayton Unruh is on of our gifted sound techs, and just so happens to have a  studio located just outside of Osler.  Our worship team is working on a project there as we speak.  If you need to record your band this would be a great place to be. http://www.mothershipstudios.ca/Home.html
