get trader's little helper (some tutorial stuff & link in my signature below)

pretty straightforward to convert to FLAC. also, check the set for SBEs by running a "len" check (instructions in the tutorial). There should be no SBEs.

generate ffp using the tutorial again, then right-click and open the resulting file with notepad to get your fingerprints.

did you record this? you need to write up a lineage. start with mics>recorder>soundcard/other method of transfer>any media used eg cassettes, cdrs, DATs etc if applicable>method of extraction from previous media if applicable>FLAC (and anything else you did such as editing software etc).

write up a text file like you see on the torrents shared here (band, date, venue, setlist, notes, fingerprints)

google a prog called maketorrent 2.1 and set it up like this:


use the "classic" mode, not simple. make sure you have everything to be included in one folder with an appropriate name (eg bandnameYYYY-MM-DD.flac16 , "16" means 16 bit, put 24 if it is 24, if you're not sure it is 99% sure to be 16). include eac log (if applicable), FLACs, ffp and/or st5, txt file, coverart (if you have). make sure none of these files are open when you generate the torrent

fill out the form, then use "manage attatchments" to attatch your torrent, then hit the "submit" button, then when the new thread appears re-download the torrent from that thread and open it with utorrent.

if youre stuck just post all the info you have and any questions, I could write two entire pages on different scenarios so it would help if I knew a little more!
