Recording a Track for Virtual Choir

Remember…

• Be sure to rehearse as much as you need by singing along with the track before recording.
• At the end of each of your takes, leave a few seconds of pleasant silence, to help the editing process. This would extend beyond any piano ‘outro.’
• Please save your recording as an .mp3 or .wav file, and to name it with the TITLE, VOICE PART and YOUR NAME (ie – Mira Tenor Brandon Leis).
• Once you’ve finished your recording, re-listen to it before uploading to make sure there weren’t too many wrong notes, extraneous sounds, or cats walking across the screen. Don’t be too critical with your own sound!!!
• A wired or strong connection, in combination with a low-traffic time of day will shorten the time it takes to upload your files.
• For any questions, please contact Marcus Kruger (marcusp.kruger@gmail.com) who has graciously offered to serve as tech support for this project.
