How To Use This Site
We have tried to address the most common questions you might have while using our site. If for any reason you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to email us--we want you to feel comfortable with how to use our site.
Your
right to copy
Because mincymedia is an exclusively online music publishing
company, there are some differences in the way we conduct business.
Once you have purchased a piece of our music, you have the
right to make as many copies of the piece as you wish for your
ministry. You can make 3 copies or 300, make copies for your
church choir while a school choir has copies of the same piece--it
makes no difference to us--you've bought the piece. And by the way, be
sure to save the original download file in a safe place on your
computer so if your copies start getting old and tattered you can just
make more! Our only condition is that all copies must be for
your ministry only. Please support us both morally and
financially in this request.
Viewing
and
downloading
In order to open, view,
and download our music files you will need to
have Adobe's Acrobat Reader installed on your computer. Acrobat Reader,
available as a free download, is a program that lets you view,
navigate, and print Adobe PDF files (Portable Document Format) on all
major computer platforms. If your computer is just three or four years
old, it is likely that you already have Acrobat Reader installed on
your computer. Version 7.0.5 is the most current, and we recommend you
download and use the most current version.

Listening
You will still need a
media player in order to listen to our CD audio
samples (but not our choir music...it will play using a player we have
embedded in the website itself). You probably already have one
installed on your computer. If
you don't, you can click on either of the two links below to download
the player of your choice. The Windows Media Player and the RealOne
Media Player are the two most common in use today and there is a free
version available for both.

Making
your music
look professional
We would suggest taking your original copy (single 8.5X11 inch sheets)
and using 11X17 inch paper to produce a booklet. This can be
done
fairly simply by laying your original 8.5X11 sheets side by side on a
copy machine through which you are running 11X17 paper. The trickiest
part of this process is making sure to put the correct pair of pages
from the original on the copier each time so that when you are ready to
assemble and fold the pages into booklet form, your pages end up in the
proper sequence. Obviously, this format requires that most of the pages
be run through the copier twice. After doing this a few times, you will
become very proficient at it. We have included a cover with
each
piece for your convenience. It would be advisable to leave
the
reverse side of the cover page blank to avoid bleed-through.
