COSPLAY SPECTACULAR! Music Submission FAQ

Cosplay Spectacular Menu

How long can my music selection be?
3 minutes. We will cut it to 3 minutes if your selection is too long.

In what formats will you be accepting music?
Preferably, burned audio CDs or MP3 CD. If you want us to pull it off your iPod, or DS Lite, we need you to bring your USB cord with you, and we cannot always accomodate so it is safer to bring the CD.

Are you accepting DVD-R/DVD+R?
At this time, we are uncertain if we will be able to support audio on DVD-R/DVD+R. We suggest burning a CD instead.

Are you accepting audio tapes?
Audio tapes sound terrible compared to CDs and MP3s. We won't have any equipment to accept audio tapes, so please use some sort of digital format (CD, MP3, WAV, etc.). We cannot accept Real Player, Real Audio, or iTunes native (MP4) files.

Can we record our skit at the convention using your equipment?
We have small microphones and sound editing software, so we can offer this on a limited basis. Groups who have their sound completed will have priority, but if you have your music and things like that prepared we may be able to do something for you.

What's a good piece of editing software?
I've personally had good luck with Audacity for PC, Mac, and Unix/Linux systems.

I have other questions.
E-mail me. I'm always checking e-mail.
