Depending on how many people are interested im thinking anywhere from 25 - 50 minutes per entry.
No Linear Audio editing software (No Audacity, Logic, Garage Band, or similiar)
Must Be Recorded live in one continous take but if you wish normalization is alright.
Loser(s) must include link to winners mix in sig for all of january.
Sync Is allowed.
I've been djing for a couple of months, im at a weird stage where i can do 3 nice transitions and then trainwreck in epic proportions on the 4th.

Id like the entry deadline to be next wednesday (1/23/13) at 9:45 PM but if that doesnt work for you guys we can figure something out.

Rgolds and Clayton. You guys happy with next wednesday at 9:45 PM as the deadline?

How long do you guys want the mixes to be, with 3 people we should remember that very few people are going to listen to 3 full long mixes.

BTW: what are your guys ability levels (just curious, wont effect the battle)

That's a valid point, shall we say something like 20-25 mins or do you want longer?

I dont mind 20 - 25 mins. TBH, the longer the mix the more chance ill end up smashing my mixtrack with a brick.

Yesterday i was playing around and i was recording like always and i noticed the mix was going really well, though i might want to put the mix online. Next transition, i slammed the crossfader but forgot that all the eq nobs were set to negative infinity.

So to finalize:
Is everyone happy with 20 - 25 minutes, Wednesday at 9:45 PM deadline.

If your in, just say so and its finalized.

sync is allowed? that makes it a bit to easy IMO.

i can take someone who has never djed before give them sync and have a mix turn out good. If you really want a "battle" make it so you cant use sync. just my opinion

Clayton

Not perfect, but will have to do & will encourage me to practice more! haha
