I am testing out a new system for digital downloads. Any feedback on the process would be appreciated very much. The test files are FREE, but the system will allow for paid downloads which will enable me to offer a wider variety of music. We still have many print editions planned, including the rest of the Mertz Opern-Revue series, Bobrowicz Selected Works Volume II and many other unannounced editions.

The current Digital Edition download process requires customers to sign into the online store. This will allow for multiple downloads and records of your digital orders, so it is a good system in case you have trouble downloading or lose the file later on. You will have access to the download links both in the online store order history list as well as via an email notice. We are including a Digital Edition License to cover usage of these digital files. The digital editions will have an embedded license as well as embedded user information.

Two files are available to test right now:

Marco Aurelio Zani de Ferranti's Divertissement sur trois Romances Anglaises favorites. MVdC 156 <DGA Editions - 001>

Giulio Regondi - manuscript excerpts <DGA Editions - 002>

Note: I updated the Regondi file with more detailed information from the Jacobs book. Since the musical manuscripts are not part of any correspondence I changed the title from "letter excerpts" to "manuscript excerpts." The music is the same. If you have already downloaded the file you can use the same URL to download the new file unless the link has expired. Since it is a free file you can also just add it to your cart again.
