Distributing My Music (Loops)

    I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction for this. What I'm looking for is a CMS system for my site that I can upload my music loops that I created for people to listen and download to use for their own purposes. Is there any pre-made CMS (Joomla, Nuke, etc?) types of software that I can do this?

    Thanks a bunch! :D

    But how does that benefit the site I'm trying to make? I need people to be able to play the wav (or whatever) files on the site to see if they like it, then download them if they want to. I think I need some sort of wav player to be able to do that which would be built into the site.

    You're going to want to use mp3 and not wav's since wavs are almost always significantly larger.

    Is there a little player that I could add for each sound file? I'm trying to look around the net for one, but I'm not having much luck. Something simple.. such as this big.

    --------------------
    |..........................|
    |.........Player.........|
    |..........................|
    --------------------

    It would include a play button, pause, rewind, etc. I thought I saw one about that size being used around the net, I don't know if it's freeware (sourceforge?) or not.

    I was thinking about having it layed out something like this..


    --------------------------------------------------------------

    --------------------
    |..........................| Information about loop here.
    |.........Player.........|
    |..........................|
    --------------------

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    --------------------
    |..........................| Information about loop here.
    |.........Player.........|
    |..........................|
    --------------------

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    --------------------
    |..........................| Information about loop here.
    |.........Player.........|
    |..........................|
    --------------------

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    page 1,2,3,4,5, last.


    That's why I wanted a small one, so I could do something like that. I was hoping there was a CMS somewhere that would include that function, would make life a lot easier. But if it's easy code that I could copy/paste and just change the link for each section then that would be fine too.

    Check out the 4th link in my sig it was made using a WordPress theme and a WP Audio Player Plugin to post mp3 files for people to listen to and download if they like it. Click on any of the titles and see the player and download link. Maybe you could use any WordPress theme and get that WP Audio Player Plugin and lay it out as you've done so some posts above this one.

    Ok, I'll check it out! I'm also trying to seperate the loop types (beat, melody, ambient, etc) by section. I think I can do that with wordpress, but it's been a while since I used WP.
