Yeah hoping I'll get a chance to be home alone before deadline to really feel less need to hold back but we'll have to see if that pans out.

I think that maybe people could be allowed to opt in for either public or private constructive criticism if they want it. But your request was perfectly reasonable and polite, Malkon. Thank you so much for running this and keeping it a fun and positive experience. I know I struggle personally with "if it's not absolutely perfect and something that makes every person on the planet fall in love with it instantly, then it's terrible and embarrassing and should be banished from the light" for anything artistic, so this contest is a good way of getting over that.

Also, it makes me sad you've had bad experiences with Simon Cowell-types on other forums.

But I got ninja'd, so changing awkwardly back to the contest, my submission will be a bit of a hot mess, but it's
my
hot mess. I have a back-up take, but I'm waiting to get a better version when my asidjoaidioadioadoa-ing neighbours leave, since I could have sold certain parts a lot better.

I'm using the "Photos" app in windows to do mine. I used to really like Windows Movie Maker but it's not a thing anymore.

That's right, I use built-in stock Windows programs. Don't @ me!

You can always make a soundcloud channel and see if the upload is better than on vocaroo.

I can help with Audacity if people want to use it. It's very easy to do what I did, wouldn't take long to teach it.

My 6 year old daughter is wondering if she can do an "unofficial" submission and get feedback.

I use a voice recorder on my phone in conjunction with karyoke on youtube, then email the finished recording to my email, download it to my laptop, and then upload to voicerepublic.

I kinda like that idea.

I don't think SingSnap's gonna work for me this time, it's doing this weird thing where my voice is either way quieter than the music or it's clipping horribly. Probably specific to the song I chose, which has a pretty wide volume range between the verses and choruses, but w/e...trying to figure out the vocal removal effect in Audacity.

Relatable. I needed a cider tonight to gather up the courage to be okay with my submission. :P

I'm happy with like....notes? I mean, I'm sure most people would be constructive? Like, I just want to hear davesto try something else, I think the tone he has is lovely.

Two takes. Micah is harmonising at points...

Micah was very audible during Klick's audition. :D

(also, mine always sound good through my shitty cell phone sound and embarrassingly horrible through headphones, and it's super annoying.)

Since the season already started, I don't think it'd be fair to let you in at this point. Sorry :(
