August Contest: RULES and SUBMISSIONS 2006-08-01T11:24:48+00:00 Back to School Class.......Class.....Pay attention..... With the help of the Advisory board, it has been determined that there's a little learning to be done here. Your assignment for this month is to create an educational MUSICAL piece that will teach us how to do something. It's time to educate us in the ways of counting, using a screwdriver, baking a cake....whatever! You can use any musical device at your disposal 1 - Submissions MUST follow these rules: (a) encoded in either .mp3 (128kbps or lower if fixed rate ... average of 128kbps or lower if VBR) or .ogg format (quality level 4.00 or lower) (b) A STRICT MAXIMUM of TWO MINUTES in length. If it shows up as 2:01 in my player, then I'll allow it for reasons of rounding in different players. But you shouldn't take that chance! Any longer gets a DISQUALIFICATION. That said, if a submitted track is over length, all contestants should feel free to mock the offending entrant mercilessly into getting permission to enter a new version of correct length. (c) entered into the contest by posting a DIRECT LINK in this RULES & SUBMISSIONS thread (use the GOSSIP thread for everything else) If you cant provide a direct link, please ask, one can probably be provided (d) submitted before 11:59 PM Thursday, August 24th, 2006 2 - Your track SHOULD also ... (a) be composed specifically for this contest (b) be created using at least some audio plugins, virtual synths, or software studio (c) have the FILE named in a format of "yearmonth_artistname_tracktitle" (ie - "06_08_artistname_tracktitle.mp3") or something similar bearing this info. (d) have AT LEAST the REAL artist and title fields of the file's ID tag completed (help us out, okay? it's easier to sift through labelled entries) 3 - Only one entry per person - no resubmissions without permission from the moderator, INCLUDING for time-overage correction. PM me for permission! 4 - Any tracks not adhering to these guidelines will be very naughty indeed. Possibly disqualified upon peer review. And at least mocked for all to point and giggle. 5 - Voting (members must have at least 20 posts to vote ... although contest entrants are exempt from this ruling) will run from the submission deadline until 11:59 PM Thursday August 31st - anyone voting for themselves will find ALL their votes disqualified - any entrants not voting will also be disqualified PRIZES http://www.discodsp.com/img/contest_logo.png George from discoDSP has been so kind as to donate a prize of their FX Bundle (a $99 value) for EVERY month this year. http://www.camelaudio.com/devsite/images/Cameleon5000-small.jpg Ben from Camel Audio has been so kind as to donate a prize of ANY of their products this month (and later months until further notice). http://www.progressaudio.co.uk/ShapeShifter/ShapeShifterSmall.jpg Alex from Progress Audio has also been so kind to offer a copy of the ShapeShifter multi-effect VST for PC for this month.
