YouTube to Mp3 [Converts Youtube Videos to Audio Files] 
I use this to transfer files to Tonal Energy (Mentioned above) and transcribe songs I want to learn. This is because Tonal Energy lets you slow songs down, loop sections, and organize files easily directly on your phone.
Convert YT to MP3

Audio Converter.com [Converts an audio file to a different file type] 
Sometimes audio files can be large and hard to send to other musicians you are working with. For this reason I often convert files from WAV to MP3 to make the files easier to download and send. This site has many options for converting audio although I most frequently use the WAV to MP3 feature.
Convert Audio

Combine PDF
This website combines multiple PDF files into one PDF file. This is a great tool to combine a score with the parts and send one file instead with score and parts instead of a large folder of files.
Combine PDFs

ITEA [International Tuba-Euphonium Association]
The International Tuba Euphonium Association, founded in 1973 as the Tubists Universal Brotherhood Association (T.U.B.A), is an international organization dedicated to performers, teachers and friends of the tuba and euphonium. You can join ITEA to receive a quarterly journal, attend tuba conferences, gain access to useful historical and musical resources, and connect with the Tuba community.
Join ITEA

Sweetwater.com
Sweetwater is an online music store for instruments, musical gear, software, and so much more! When I want to learn about music gear I go to Sweetwater first! They have amazing customer service to the point the send a small package of candy with every order. I highly recommend a visit to the Sweetwater campus in Fort Wayne Indiana. It is the equivalent of a kid in a candy store for musicians. You can tour a giant music store, see the warehouse, attend concerts, take a campus tour, eat lunch, and even go down the iconic Sweetwater Slide!
