Important things to remember:

  • Eventide policy requires that all co-writers be properly credited.
  • If you send a cassette, be sure to rewind it all the way to the beginning.
  • If you send a CD, double-check to make sure it has sound (this may seem obvious, but we’ve received CD’s in the past that have been blank).
  • Judges are listening for the song quality rather than the recording quality.
  • Home demo recordings are okay, but make sure the vocal is out front enough to be clearly heard. Also, keep intros and solos short.
