Virtual Recording Studio

Welcome to VRS

Connect, Create, Collaborate!

The VRS web site was designed for one reason: To connect Musicians, Songwriters, Producers, and Mixers - To collaborate on new music.

Just like it's real world analogue (a brick and mortar recording studio), VRS is a virtual meeting place for all musicians (hobbyist or pro) to connect, collaborate, and create music.

Now, an artist with a really great song is no longer limited by geographic location, in finding other "local" musicians that have the same musical tastes. Instead, artists can use VRS to collaborate with like minded musicians, whether they are in the same neighborhood or on different continents!

Your song projects can be public or private. You control who can hear your music or collaborate on your project. And for public projects VRS has a great feature called the "Song Shop" - It lets others hear a demo of your song and join your project.

Membership is free. Just enter some basic information on the signup screen , and start collaborating with other musicians today.

Getting ever better...

We've been spending some time over the past couple of months looking at all the VRS screens and navigation. And we think there is still a lot we can do to make VRS easier and more fun to use.

We admit that we are primarily musicians, secondly computer geeks, and lastly interface designers. So we tend to spend a lot of our time trying to figure out what would make VRS easier and more fun to use. And then some more time trying to figure out how to do it.

We can't say we always get it right the first time, but it is very important to us, so we continue to tweak VRS to make it more useful and more enjoyable.

Out latest refinements have been implemented in the VRS project screens, and frankly we think they are pretty great. Of course, what really matters is what you think. So Log in, take a look at the changes we have made, and let us know what you think.

Happy Birthday to us...

Has it been three years already?!

Wow... It's been three years since our little music collaboration system showed up on the Interwebs...

We've learned a lot in those three years... But the main thing we have learned is: Never stand still. Never stop innovating, and never stop adding the new features that our community wants.

As we celebrated the holidays with family and friends, a thought occured to us: What about guests? We had guests come stay with us for a few days, and some for longer. They had no interest in moving in to our neighborhood, but they wanted to hang with us. And we thought: Maybe VRS users could benefit from that idea.

What if we allowed Project Creators to invite Guests to their Projects for just a week or two?

And VRS Guest Access was born.

Soon VRS Project Creators will be able to invite Guests to collaborate on their Projects with just a Guest's email address. There is no need for a Guest to signup for VRS. And guests can upload Musician Tracks, add comments, and download both Tracks and Mixes from that Project.

We figure, once Guests see what VRS can do, they'll probably want to signup too. But, either way, every VRS Project can have up to 4 Guests. And each one of those Guest can be active for one to four weeks.

Guest Access took a lot more effort to code than we anticipated - but it was worth it. We are currently in our final testing of this great new capability, and if all goes well, we should have it ready for our community to use in a week or so.

And, we can't say it enough: Thanks for letting us be a part of YOUR music.
