This is especially for the people who made something with the live recording feature. That you used it, what have you recorded .... Or when you made a collab, is there a special reason for that composition of members? Stuff like that.
If you made a 1,5 minute Drone Ambient, you dont have to describe it

Good point. Added it to the Rules / Requirements

Just copy that draft into a new one

yes

ok thanks for the clarification!

To be clear: That only counts for unpublished drafts

Kind of defeats the purpose if you're doing that imo

I know that it is clear for you but you can’t know who is reading this ;)

cringe

In a remix the original artist is always shown as co-author

exactly. are remixes allowed, and would it count as a collab?

No, a collab is a collab not a remix

would it be a collab if he helped me w/the remix, though?

Why don't you just make a great track? Alone or with one or two partners. Its much easier than finding legal loopholes

brilliante idea! on it!

wish i'd thought of that...

Hey, i'm always up for prog rock !

Awesome! I'll invite you to a new draft!

It appears to mean that if you do submit a remix of a song an entry, then the remix must be of your own song. Don't worry, you can make a song from scratch :)

only if the track you remix is one of your own tracks and isn't allready a remix of an other users track.

basicly it has to be your own music

Maybe the question should not be if something is allowed, but if you have a chance to win a producer competition by remixing your own track.

@sandburgen what

Well. This is a producer's contest. In which the most original and best produced track will most likely win. So I wonder if it makes sense to remix an existing track if you want to win the prize, even if it is allowed.

The question seems to me as if an athlete at the Olympics would ask if he could start running a little earlier. That's all ;)

which would be convenient, isn't ? ;)

Comfort is the death of meritocracy ;)

and meritocracy at its apex is the death of human equality: the circle is complete , lets' start all together ;)

Make electronic music great again

Charting has nothing to do with quality. Contests do

dang i kinda want that mask

ooh, that's gonna be awesome

They meant "prize". Collabs have to distribute the prizes amongst the group. If the winning track is a collab, each member only gets a single item a prize.

1 Behringer Uphoria bundle each member of the winning team. 1 bundle = 1 prize.
Same with the masks.
We don't motivate the users to make collaborations and then they have to share the prize.
Are the formulations in the text not good to understand? Do we need to revise something

I want a third of a mask pls pls pls !!

"The track must be produced within the time limits of the contest"

It has just started

The track must have been made from the 18th to June 15th

ohk thank you

Exactly thanks @foxyfennec

Give it a go ! the worst thing that can happen is constructive criticism ◙‿◙

Ok, i guess so lol

(o^-')b

But just to be clear my entry can be a collab with 2 other people right?

yea

Yes, i don't think there's a limit for that.

ok ty

"Collaborations up to three members (One price each member)"

prize*

flu you didnt have to do him like that XD

Preis

:sunglasses:

people have been getting confused because of it so I had to

I can't correct it anymore so I better delete it before someone enters with a 2 year old remix called JonathanPrice

oh fr?

good question

The tracks presented to the jury have all been checked by us for their legal suitability. They don't have to ensure anything

I'm sure this jury members take their job seriously.

God has entered the chat! :o

You mean the banner on the start page?

exactly @a-records

Yes

But before someone gets it wrong: AT day is a user organized contest

that's an awesome feature

Shared by other users is always risky. Use this https://www.audiotool.com/board/news/sample_clearance_levels to be safe

Okay, thank you very much!

felt thst

If you want.

oh! thanks!

Go ahead and participate anyways, im looking forward to what ur gonna make :D

When they really are your samples, of course. But to be clear too downloaded from Looperman or bought from Loopmasters for example are not yours. Not talking about drum one shots here

so i can use drum one shots right?

Yes

ok thanks!

can i submit, but add vocals later?

yes, no problem.

I have no plans and my entry will most probably suck major abs, but I am going to participate too, theres nothing that should hold you back bruv, just go ahead and make something.

enters hits 200 and wins

The only link in this post leads to my artist page

Believe me, it is only by training, experimenting and failing that you learn and improve yourself :) I started on AT in 2012 and was discouraged like you each time Uprising, Teqtoniq or Infyuthsion released insane tracks. I finally stopped producing music and today I regret all these years wasted while I could have spent them improving myself. You can check the very first tracks released by the good AT artists of today... Basically, everyone incredibly sucks on AT at the beginning. The beat is dry as the desert, the melody is anything but sophisticated, the use of FX pedals is nearly random, the synth is flat, tasteless and makes as much ear damages as a fork in a switched-on microwave - and I think (I hope I am not alone) that we all have this obsessional relationship with the Rasselbock of which nothing good comes out. And honestly, I checked your tracks and you pay way more attention to sound design than I did when I started.
Don't forget that this contest is way more than just trying to win, its purpose is mainly to create a kind of team spirit transcending borders between all AT members. You're part of our AT community so you definitely should participate and share that team spirit with all of us :)

Wise words

One

ngl im in it for the face masks..

do ur best.
Lets hope it's as great as your covers
:D

(Possibly open to making this one a collab if anyone is interested. :3)

If you can prove that you have two faces I personally knit you a second one with a Sandburgen S (the one the Superman guys stole from me) on it

thats what imma do with my samples

@ceroxin Cause, when you freeze them, the samples do not show up in the description as assets.

._.
...thank you for the traumatizing words of encouragement, Vizil. lmao

you should collab tho

uh.
i never asked?

If you want to be safe, save the parts you bounced as bookmarks before you delete them. And write it in the description

lol no but if you only get one you can only where it for a certain amount of time so i was wondering if you got a set or something

hey @gravidon
u still available for collab or nah?

new version of own tracks meant you could republish the tracks u produce within the time period? that's what I've found out, sorry I thought the new version track part meant I could republish old tracks

again my bad, sorry, imma dumb 14 year old

No problem. You're interested in getting it right. That's worth a lot. When the question came up whether remixes would be against the rules, I said reworked versions of old tracks would be ok. But this still involves the technical process of remixing, because of that rule with the publishing date. That means: click on remix and create a new, revised version.
I admit that this point was not included in the planning of the rules, because in my mind there is only one range approach for a producer contest: Taking on the challenge of producing the best possible new track. Not to think about how to make it as easy as possible for myself. (Especially not in public) This may have led to some misunderstandings. Now go ahead

thanks for understanding, sorry for my mistakes hahahahah. will take this advice in

Cool track!

yo @a-records https://www.audiotool.com/track/tgrvqo18
will u count this? added vocals and re arranged the beat

don't forget to include a description. In any case, in the end the question will arise who composed and sang the vocals. IT MUST BE IN THE DESCRIPTION! The jury will only hear tracks that are flawless.And I'm not gonna end up chasing after anybody to get the information

fr!

What an honor, the Wu-Tang Clan entered the Audiotool contest

Self recorded samples are desired, safe samples are allowed https://www.audiotool.com/board/news/sample_clearance_levels Copyright infrigings samples like the (now blocked) Looperman sample in your submission are not allowed

there you go

Title

cant wait for it, u always make great bangers hahahah

Meanwhile I can't get more than 16 bars into a project before I get stuck!

I havent even come up with anything yet

@ewan_mcculloch do you have technical problems?

have you installed the booster?

@sandburgen, no not at all. The app is running great, its me that's the problem!

ok the boosters for that are not legal I guess 8)

Had no idea the booster existed! Thank you so much! My computer was definitely struggling!

Yes most important app on my Laptop :D

@ewan_mcculloch hope you find inspiration in the three weeks left. Maybe you could look for a collaboration partner or two.

wu-tan acapella is not the best base to enter

wu-tan

wu-tan

@ewan_mcculloch yeah, a collab could be very cool... ^-^
wink wink nudge nudge grovel grovel offers first born child as sacrifice

wu-tan

wu-tan

lmaooo
wu tang forever

wu-tan

*wu tan forever

idk why people are saying wu-tan, but I'm just going to say it: WU-TAN

wu-tan

oof my sample got blocked

Time for a new Bluedude track anyways

@gravidon, I'm gonna try to finish this off, then maybe I'll give another submission a go as a collab ;)

if you want to be able to sleep with a clean conscious at night I would use a new one. Otherwise copy-paste and nobody will know ;d

No that's ok. Selfmade samples are allowed. But don't forget to describe the process

It might be possible that Audial doesn't already know that feaure.: You can open a second draft while you are in a project. Select the parts you want to use and copy them in the new draft. with ctrl C ctrl V
On the other side that's not nessecary. It's only about publishing in this time period

We could rename the contest to Icebox Challenge

hahaha sorry is it too much? imma dial down lol hahahaha

just rying to learn fromall these great producers my friend :)

no no kidding. Good stuff and no limits

hahaha thx mann :D

I actually didn't know of this feature, thanks for the info :)

ik im entering let:(

yes!

You have until next week Monday as the deadline!

UPDATE: I don't really have as much free time anymore to complete this in time due to working from home, so this entry won't be published before the deadline (It'll still come out later this month tho). Anyway, good luck to all of the participants!!! ^-^

End of that day CET

Maybe...
some duubs...

this is so sad

While I understand your frustration, the devs aren't really responsible for what happens in public collabs (as long as it isn't threatening or violent, anyway). It's best just to ask people you really trust and send private invites to collab drafts. I do agree that there should be some sort of user determine DC criteria for public draft to filter out those with malicious intent. :/

UUhh, I hate it.

As far as open collabs go, I guess this is what might happen, so far it's better to send private invites. And in addition I guess the public collaborations are designed to be as open and free as possible, which I kind of understand. I guess the two are both specialised for each reason, however when there's too many collaborators and especially dumb ones, which is really sad, I guess one'll have to go invite privately

I do agree with @gravidon though, would be nice if you had a choice to filter people or report them for malintention

Man, this really sucks :/

Never choose the "invite everyone" option..
And there's an unfair fact that I cant understand either, I know its not ur case but imagine someone invites u on a collab, u work a lot on it then the dude kicks u out and publish it alone. Plenty of things that i dont understand in the AT rules..

sure

You can invite everyone as viewer and only let the trustworthy ones access the draft as an editor
And before you let someone access the draft you can save the state of the entire project by copying the plugins (highlighting all the devices including the mixer, and pressing Ctrl+C), that way you can retrieve the whole project if someone decides to delete everything by pasting everything back (Ctrl+V)
Then you can remove unwanted users from the "Invite" menu by clicking the "X" by their name and you can report them after or whatnot
The Devs did their job properly, you just gotta know how to work things around

when someone joins, they should automatically only be assigned viewer.

I'm not sure why this has not been implemented yet

this whole thread should probably be under Feature Requests or something

helpful tip, if your going to invite someone dont just save it as a bookmark, go and copy and paste everything you have to a new draft.

lol fred already said it whatever

that's what making a bookmark is for tho

Only when it’s 50% your garden and not bigger than 300 square meters

i agree. really hope they extend it!

^^^^^^^^^

They said the deadline was today which typically means that you can submit on the deadline.

Typically deadlines end at the end of the day not in the first minute

You guys have a lot songs to look over haha

Why not simply extend the deadline? Then participants don't have to publish work that is unfinished just so that the track is submitted and judges get to have a proper first impression.

dont forget meeeeee

exactly

nice
