Here are the rules for this comp:
NEW RULE: All judges will have to be appoved by me and will only be accepted as long as nobody else has any problems. Judges must take this duty to mix seriously. All mixes must be marked on skill and the way the contestant progresses their mix, NOT ON PERSONAL OPIONION OF THE CONTESTANT OR THE SONGS HE WISHES TO MIX. Although contestants must abide by the tracklist rules.
Closing date for DJs: 1st June 2oo2
Closing date for mixes: 1st July 2oo2
THIS MAY BE ALTERED AS IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR SOME PEOPLE TO UPLOAD AT A STRICT TIME DUE TO EXAMS
Closing date for results: 1st August 2oo2
There will be no exceptions for DJ entry, however exceptions will be made if people are having problems uploading with slower connections. My suggestion is to send your mix to somebody with a fast connection for them to upload.
Mixes must be submitted in 160kbps Mp3 quality, CBR or VBR, no Mp3-Pro files are allowed.
You may mix with:
a) Vinyl
b) CDs
c) Mp3s (no sequencer software)
All DJs must state how they have made their set, ie which formats used.
All mixes must be recorded live, by that I mean no sequencers.
You may plan and practise your mix, but not to the point that it becomes robotic.
All mixes must be uploaded with a tracklist, a cue sheet would also help. You may combine both into the cue sheet, but remember not all CD writers support that type of cue sheet so be careful when burning.
Contestants may not also be a judge, you have the choice to be either, not both.
You may not download other contestants mixes.
You must mix trance, this rule bends as far as progressive and hard trance. Contestants will be disqualified for extended use of non-trance music.
Mixes will be marked on the following categories:
a) Track selection and play order
b) Beat-matching
c) Transition harmonics
All sections contain 25 marks, no section is worth more than another.
A percentage will then be calculated from these three areas to give a better comparison.
You must actually mix to gain marks, snapping together of tunes is not allowed. That is not really DJing.
Judges and Administrators have the right to reserve and change/ammend these rules. |

Cool i am in.
I like the idea of the mxies with Numbers aswell.
I know the other thread has been closed but i cant help but say this.
Since i joined the forums in october last year, i have always had alot of respect for Neo and Fox, but due i recent events for respect for fox has gone. I am totaly shocked at his actions with regards to the mixing comp II. It may sound stupid but im also dissapointed. |

and as for the anonymous mix idea, yeah I already suggested that for the 1st comp.. but now you see how valuable it is regarding judging bias. so please, implement it. its not that hard to do. just have the person with the file server rename all the mixes to numbers before the judges download.. and no posting tracklists. :P
second, regarding scoring, i think there can be a better way to score the mixes. I haven't figured out the logistics of it yet... but yeah, something to do with the way figure skaters or gymnasts are marked, it works well... but i'll get back to this later. |
