Lol my playlist is full with male singers...
It was so hard to choose a song that was singable for me

Oooh I wonder if I should at least try and put my voice on this

This seems like fun, I anticipate your voices as my voice sounds like death

Question !

"Noise cancellation is allowed, but vocal layering/harmonies/reverbs/autotune/effects/other mixing fx are not allowed."

In other words, it means that the recording vocal should be raw (only in necessity of noise cancellation is allowed) right ?

But can the instrumental be mixed (?) , eg; the instrumental is pitched (high or low) to suits our vocal range.

is that allowed ? <3

Pretty sure you can do with the instrumental whatever you want as only your voice will get judged. So as long as you don't do anything with that it should be fine.

You can use an instrumental but dont transpose it.

Yay, might try again [never made it past the first round last time I tried, and for a good reason XD]

[I know any languages are allowed] but are dubs of a song in a different language allowed? Thanks.

Good luck to everyone!

Welp there goes my entry ^o^. Time to do it all over again.

rip half-step transposition.

Flanster wrote: 2k4e1s

Because some of the songs can be too high/low for our vocal range and by pitched the key of the instrumental to, eg; -2 key lower or +2 key higher make the song more viable to sing.

A.k.a you cant, just sing what you can
I'm not allowing this.

I don't really understand this rule. If the point of the contest is to show off our voices, why can't we sing songs in a key to best do this? You might as well say guys can't sing songs by girls or vice versa because it's in a different octave than the original. FWIW, at least two of my songs last year were in different keys than the original artist's recording. If there's a song I enjoy that allows me to express myself but the original soloist has a different range, why should I be barred from singing that song? On idol contests irl they play fast and loose with the keys of their songs, they do whatever they can to ensure they give the best performance possible.

So you did this without saying anything? Okay. Fine. Lets allow this then.

Well, changing the instrumental doesn't have any influence on your voice.
In fact, most commercialized idols get the songs written perfectly for their capabilities so it wouldn't make much sense indeed to restrict the use of pitchaltered instrumentals.
I mean I could make myself my own instrumental with Cajon+Guitar but it'd be kinda unfair to be people who can't play instruments and "manually" transpose it...

Glad you allowed it ;P

Didn't think I would have to, the voice is still mine, just in a more comfortable range. It's not like I was trying to fool anyone, you could listen and tell the keys were different than the originals.

Fair enough, carry on.

I know the rules say no voice laying, so I presume that means no singing over the original vocals, right? The problem I have is that the only 'instrumental' I could find left the vocals in for one line of lyrics (the rest is fine). Would it be acceptable to sing over that?
It wouldn't necessarily seem out of place, the creator of the track clearly thought it was suitable as a karaoke track at any rate.

The rule applies to laying your own voice. Aslong as we can hear you well enough it should be okay.

A question, it might sound silly (forgive me) but can we do more than 1 song? Multiple entries, I meant.

Ofcourse not.. You can only entry again if you the round.

You can ask to replace your entry though if that's what you want. Maybe.

you for the intention of having fun, not winning :p

Just a quick question; So you want "RAW" songs? That's probably not the real term but I mean that you don't want us to/don't allow us to sing a song and cut out the best parts to make the song whole again? Just double checking, since this probably fits in under "Other mixing FX".

The entry has to consist of one single take. Using more than one take and cutting stuff together is not allowed.
You can check last year's registration entries, there was at least one entry that got disqualified for it.

Endaris knows it.

Got it. Thanks guys.

Well heck, then if you try to attempt a 5-minute song with continious lyrics you are so gonna need to take a breather somewhere inbetween multiple times. And that's gonna suck. Kakuzetsu Thanatos for example, you are gonna need a whale's lung XD.

Its registrations anyway, choose something shorter.

I wouldn't suggest singing vocaloid anyway cause you know that they don't have to breathe lol.
Smart breathing during a performance is part of a vocalist's skill.

Do we have to sing in the the song's style? For example, is it allowed to sing in a rock/metal way the pop/jpop song we'll have to sing? (And other way around?)

Choose a song already within the genre

I guess I'll enter, but I don't know how much the judges will appreciate the voice of an opera bass singer.

What would be the point of a stage with a specific genre if you didnt follow it, that would be disqualification. If its a Pop stage, you sing Pop!

woohoohoo! plenty of entries to dig in to and the month isn't even half way up yet, keep em coming!

One sitting or disqualified.

Oh man, it sucks because my rhythm problem is too obvious with the instrumental (to where I felt it would distract the listener from enjoying the song) so I actually resubmitted trying to put the acapella as the main submission, but then idk what I was thinking but I wasn't sure if I should've included the non-acapella one too and I ended up making a playlist?

But anyways, I'd rather just have the acapella cover as my main submission if it's not too much of a hassle... (unless I have no chance already )

Sorry for the inconvenience!!

Am i supposed to say here about the echo mic and all that?
Cause my mic isn't echo but stops catching voice if I move only a bit(and i use that so i hide the breath xD) , I noticed that some endings look a bit like they are cut. Maybe it's just me being paranoid not to get disqualified cause of mic ;_; . Let me know if that is a problem and I will record again without moving.

just to get this clear, if we do make it to the first stage or any stage for that matter, do we just get notified to make the recording within the week?

Theres no way of notifying everyone unless sending a crapton of forum PMs which will take a while. Either check this thread regularly and/or follow our twitter.
