Anyone know if getting a sound card would improve my input recordings? Because they all sound like they're being done on 70's ghetto-rigged equipment. I didn't think I'd need one when I had this built so I didn't order one.

Submission deadline is coming up, everyone. Get your recording wrapped up and ready to be shipped off to animask to be judged.

@KoromoAmae - pretty sure quality of your recordings has more to do with quality of your mic than it does sound card since most modern onboard inputs are decent. I didn't find anything too bad with your recording quality. No need to fret about it that much. XD

animask, I don't think I have time to whip up another submission, so the current submission shall do... xD thanks !

In case you just need a few more days to work on it, theres an extension available for Saturday.

Just in case you guys forgot~

EDIT: You have to ask for it in the thread (so everyone can see it).

I would like an extension, I've been dealing with a tornado that just hit my area REALLY close by. New England isn't known for this type of extreme weather, so it's hectic. I've also been working a lot, dealing with a lot of priorities. I really hope I can get it in by the end of the day Saturday, but I'll respectfully let you know if I have to forfeit this round.

Thanks in advance, I don't like to just drop out of something I commit to, but there's a lot of stuff going on in my life at this moment, hence the huge decrease in posts.

Edit: I'd like to thank the judges for the honest feedback, my first ever karaoke truly. I also am working with crappy 90's computer speakers (my computer didn't bring any, so I'm using old ones from like Windows 98 era I bet) and a microphone so cheap that it came free with something else I had a long time ago. I also use primitive programs to fix the voice, so I'm actually glad it was clear. My speakers may not be so clear, but I'll try to lessen the power. The mic shakes a lot, but I wanted to make sure you heard me more than the music.

Also, I didn't realize I SHOULD be singing the girl parts, so thanks for the input! I'll try to use a song wtih a single voice next time. As for my real voice, I think I actually will try one that I'm comfortable with. My voice cracks, but last time I checked i passed the Music Theory AP (exam) vocal sight reading section with flying colors. But I could be rusty, I think I'll hit up the major and minor scales again, and do some thirds or something.

Thank guys, really. I really will try to submit soon, but guys. A tornado. Hasn't happened for YEARS. So yea, kinda dealing with that stress, glad that people I care about and even the people I don't are safe, and I'm glad that my co-worker is safe, who I had to push back away from the heavy glass door at my job as it broke off the hinges when the wind came, I almost got hit myself. Scary shit guys, thanks for being patient.

Oh gosh, please give me the extension ><

reason: I fail at life

Oh thanks for the extension, I was going to ask for this because I tried to get a good recording but didn't yesterday.

Submission deadlines are tomorrow! I hope everyone who didn't submit their entries yet had enough time to record and do their best (or at least try, lol). That extension better not had been for nothing. :3

Also, I will be putting up a 6-month subscription in the list of prizes since I am a terrible modder. XD Been getting in a steady stream of money from my job now.

:U Slipping already, animask? Tee hee. lol

Ugh, I just got a bad cold so I doubt I can do a decent recording until tomorrow.

So by the end of the day Sunday correct? Nice, I've been working overboard helping out the tornado relief and working more hours at my job to replace whoever was affected. I'm off tomorrow, I'm sure i can get a good recording sometime in the day. Thanks! I actually came here to say I'd have to forfeit Round 2 so you wouldn't wait on me, but this is good news.

Given that the scores go exponentially higher the more contestants there are, I really hope more than 3 people submit for this round.

Wondering if you could post the next theme. I don't think I'll be able to record after monday.
I hope it's free choice again ;x;

D: Animask, where are you?

Is it deadline time yet? Everyone submit your recordings before it's too late!

I'm gonna kill myself

Approx. time left: 12 hours.

Sending everything tomorrow in the morning.

The current theme is...
Song with the Year you were Born -> Round THREE!

Oh, shit.

edit: I assume he means song FROM the year you were born.

This is seriously a very hard theme...

Cause I don't know any english song from 1988...

As well as japanese songs...

Guess I have to try my luck with chinese songs...
