Does it have to be mixed on decks or can we use cds+mp3s?

You can use decks or CD players (or both) but you can't use MP3's.

Hi there
Just wondered a few things.
1) I have my mix encoded as an mp3, but where do I upload it to, or who do I send it to?
2) It is only approx 23 mins long. Is that OK?
3) Is the competition anonymous? Or do we have to include our DJ names/contact with the mix?
Thanks!!

My m8s on holiday in crete right now. He wont be back until the 28th of Sept. Could I get one of his mix tapes, and cut 30 mins out of it and enter, as he never knew about this comp b4 he went abroad.

No I will enter the comp with my own mix, but if he would of known about this comp he would have made a 30 min tape b4 he went on holiday. So could I get a tape with one of his mixes and just upload 30 mins of it, so he can take part.

Ok, I'm sure this sounds dumb. But what program do I use to encode my mix into MP3. All of my programs ask what bitrate, not if i want 56k mono. Any ideas?

well i have two programs I prefer to use for different encoding purposes...
for the purpose of this, you may find it easier to utilize soundforge5...its got a great encoding function...does a clean job, and somewhat quick....another suggestion is cooledit2000...it uses fraunhofer technology which makes really smooth mp3s...
both have convert to mono and encode to 56k with diff Hz...oodles of options....
hope that helped :) for soundforge check out sonicfoundry's site and for cooledit check out syntrilium's...
happy mixing!

I use CoolEdit 2000 myself, it's easy and it's cheap (I'm a beta tester actually). Download a trial version from http://www.syntrillium.com/cooledit/index.html
If you want to save to 56K Mono, load your sound file into the Cool Edit 2000 and press Save As, change the type to MPEG 3 and then press Options, on the second drop down menu there will be a range of sample and bit rates, change it too 56K, 22050 Hz, Mono. Click ok and then save the file.
Your ready to go.
