CosFest Music Submission FAQ

How long can my music selection be? 3 minutes.   In what formats will you be accepting music? Preferably, burned audio CDs. We can accept MP3 files too.   Are you accepting DVD-Rs? At this time, we are uncertain if we will be able to support audio on DVD-R. We suggest burning a CD instead.   Are you accepting audio tapes? Don't you hate it when that person at your anime club brings their old 3rd generation copies of Dragon Ball on VHS tapes? The point is, audio tapes sound terrible compared to CDs and MP3s. We won't have any equipment to accept audio tapes, so please use some sort of digital format (CD, MP3, WAV, etc.) We cannot accept Real Player or Real Audio files.   Can we record our skit at the convention using your equipment? We are going to try to do this at PMX, but we are still working out details. We have small microphones and sound editing software. Groups that have their sound completed will have priority for my time, but if you have your music and things like that prepared we may be able to do something.   What's a good piece of editing software? I've personally had good luck with Audacity for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, GNU/Linux, and other operating systems. You can download a copy (Open Source) and fiddle around with it. Otherwise, dig around, there are plenty of software packages out there.   I have other questions. This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
