REDPANAL, UNA NUEVA FORMA DE HACER MÚSICA.
RedPanal es un sitio web donde puedes compartir música original libremente. Un espacio que te ayudará a difundir tus obras y explorar sonidos, instrumentos, géneros de todo el mundo. Todo el material es propio, de los usuarios, compuestos e interpretados por ellos, lo cual abre la posibilidad de conocer de forma directa la diversidad sonora y sus interpretes.
Lo más importante de RedPanal es que te servirá para componer colectivamente. Todo archivos es modificable, pudiendo ser usado para obras nuevas en forma parcial o total. Es de esperar que tus canciones tengan también aportes de otros usuarios. Tal vez por pedido tuyo, tal vez por algún aporte que no esperabas, espontáneo, anónimo. Hasta ese momento anónimo, ahora parte de tu red.
La producción musical no se restringe al audio. Por eso, en RedPanal no podía faltar la posibilidad de integrar en tus proyectos partituras, midis, textos o lo que vos entiendas necesario para realizarlo, en forma aficionada o profesional.
El sitio cuenta con una arquitectura participativa, pensada para generar intercambio y diálogo entre los sujetos de la comunidad.
RedPanal, en resumen, te posibilita la posibilidad de sumergirte en la edición del material que quieras, para construir un nuevo sonido surgido de la diversidad que sólo ahora puedes tener. Porque la cultura se defiende compartiéndola!

4th Part: Search and community tips.
Like I said in the 2nd Part of this "Panal tutorial", in the header of the site there are 5 permanent labels that take you to the different pages of it: Home, My account, Upload, Search and Community.
I've explained how the upload works, that is the most difficult part to understand. I think that My Account, Search and Community will be easier to write about, because a lot of sites have similar workspaces.
My account. This is where you'll configure all the info that you want to show to the community: name, email, country, language, blog/web page and some other stuff that could be useful if you want other users to contact you. You'll have, in addition, an instant message system in Panal, but remember, the more information you give about yourself, the easier is to reach you! The contact between users is very important, because its what it will really make things work. Imagine that you have a song, a reggae song, for example, and you want a guitar solo. You look for good reggae guitar players, and you ask them to add a file to the song, and there you are!
The files you have uploaded and downloaded will appear here with the posts and messages you have done and received, and your "Friends" in the community, the people you choose because you are more related to.
Search. This works as most of the search engines. You may search any file of Panal by name, instrument, tempo, key or time signature, user, etc.You can listen to the files there or download it to your computer to work with them later.
Community. This label will take you to Groups, Forum and Orders.
Groups: As you could have similar interests with other users (a kind of music or the educational work, as examples) you would like to have a place where you could chat or write about them, send your stuff. This groups will work as -virtual- meeting places to make easier to meet and reach to know other users.
Forum: is a list, like an email group, where you may ask questions about Panal, socialize learnings. All the interaction will be between users, helping each others.
Orders: When you have a song and you want to add it something, you can order it here. "Sitar in D for an Intro", "Jazz drum, 120 b.p.m.", "Solo for a beatles-kind song" could be some examples of orders in here.

3rd Part: Upload.
Just imagine if your songs could be taken by anyone, anywhere in the whole world, and be enriched with other instruments, scales, rhythms of any region in the globe.
Tracks: when you record a song, you do it channel per channel, in a multitrack way. One of the good things Panal have, is that the way of sharing your stuff will be exactly as that. This option let you upload a whole line of any instrument, as an independent, single track.
Samples: Tracks are not the unique kind of audio file you’d like to upload to Panal. A sample is a kind of file that has just one beat duration. Is just a “sound” (of any instrument) that we may use with a sequencer.
Here you have a example of Publish song, Track and Loop:
Get your own Flash MP3 Player
I hope that you all understand my explanation of the Upload page. If not, you just have to ask, and I promise to do my best to help you.
The spirit of Panal is to create a virtual space where musicians could meet each other and share their own stuff. A space where a new kind of music, a new kind of cultural exchange, may exist. A community where a collective kind of composition might be the guideline, using the web like tool for the purpose.
The upload page is the place where you choose which of your own creations you would like to share with other users.
I’ll try to explain how it works. I hope you could help with the terms, because my English –again- could easily makes me stuck in the mud.
You’ll have six differents options for uploading your files. Remember that Panal is meant to be a working tool for the musician, not just a game, although it could be very fun. That’s why this step is so important, and we need to organize it like this.

Loops: Loops are finite sequences or sounds that may help us to create our songs if we repeat it and we add some bass or guitar lines.
Panal could be a great samples and loops database, with a library of sounds that could be useful for any kind of Audio job: educational work, soundtracks, publishing.

Other Files: Like we all know, music is not make only with Audio. If you have Tabs, music scores or midi files that you want to share, this is the option you may choose.
Create Project: Panal lets you upload your files in a free way, or like a song, in a multitrack way. When you click “Create Project”, the files you’re uploading will be, all together, in a same folder. This will organize and make much easier the search work for you and the other users.
Publish Song: If we have a Mono or Stereo, mixdown version of any song that we want to show to the world, the “Publish Song” item is what you’re looking for. The Project has a lot of files, even from different users. The Song is a particular summary that one user made of a Project.
Here you have a example of Publish song, Track and Loop:

2nd Part: The "Home" page.
Ok! With the introduction done, i'll try to explaine how the structure (the "tree", we call it) of our site is. This is very difficult for me, because my english could be very tricky.
The structure of a site is the most important thing, and always depends in the usability and interaction we want it for. In other words, which are the things that our page needs to stand out, so the user can know exactly what the webpage is for, and activities that he or she could do in it, etc.
I must say that the design of the webpage is still under construction, so everyday we have modifications. So, the things I write today, we might changes them tomorrow. That's the danger of writing about movable things :-)
Home
Is the first place you'll arrive when you type our domain. In the Home you have the general data of the community. We could also divide it in three parts:
Header: the logo is here, with the register/sign in fields and the general labels of the site. This labels don't change when you navigate through the webpage, so you have them all the time just at "one click distance".
Body: It includes a short briefing of what's the page about, news, recently joined users or uploaded files and contests. Actually, it appears just OI because we have not decided yet the content of this box. I hope that by the weekend it might be complete. We also have two important buttons there, UPLOAD and SEARCH, because those are probably the most important actions to stand out. I hope, if I can explain myself, that at the end of this modest tutorial you could understand why.
Lower Part: I just don't know how is the name in english of this element of the site. It could be footer, like Floyd joked me about. There some links here that could be useful for users, but doesn't change the funcionality of the site: About Us, Help, Blog, Contact, Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
You can see the webpage just as is right now, but I have to warn you that still needs a lot of work. Besides, it's the spanish version the only one working right now and you'll have to see it with Internet Explorer. I give you the link, likewise, because maybe you'd like to see how it grows. I hope it'll be more organized in a few days.
Greetings!
