## Guidelines
|
|
|
|
You can reference original media / music sheets etc. The whole piece does not need to be reproduced, usually focus on main melody / vocals, as a suggestion __try humming along and see what fits best__.
|
|
|
|
Some liberties can be taken, doesn't need to be perfect either! You can take the most known parts of the song, or cut out / shorten some of the parts that don't make sense to reproduce, re-arrange etc.
|
|
|
|
__Do not include background music__, however using other instruments (even not wind instruments) in the background is allowed (would impressive if you get an orchestra going!).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Recording
|
|
|
|
Please use high quality microphones if possible. In doubt, use a phone or tablet, they tend to have better microphones than average headset/laptop ones.
|
|
|
|
Record lossless (_FLAC/ALAC/WAV etc._) when able, or highest bitrate possible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Record on iOS
|
|
|
|
You can use the Voice Memos app to record audio. Place the device on a flat surface facing you, upwards.
|
|
|
|
#### Change Audio Quality to Lossless
|
|
|
|
By default the recording is made in a highly-compressed low-bitrate AAC. You can change this to lossless ALAC on Settings.
|
|
|
|
Go to _Settings_ → _Voice Memos_ → _Audio Quality_ → Change to _Lossless_
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Record on Android
|
|
|
|
You can use the Voice Recorder app that comes with most devices. Place the device on a flat surface facing you, upwards.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, use a raw recorder application like [Sound Recorder PCM](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hardcodedjoy.soundrecorder).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Uploading
|
|
|
|
You can upload resulting files on [uguu.se](https://uguu.se/), [catbox.moe](https://catbox.moe/) or similar sites.
