Disclaimer

By submitting their entry to the competition, all participants agree to grant non-exclusive rights for their contribution (or an excerpt from it) to be presented by PinkNoise Studio on their website, SoundCloud and Propellerhead Shop page, towards the promotion of Maia Dual Synthesizer (with due credits, of course). If you do not agree with this rule, please do not participate! Moreover, by submitting a song to the competition, participants express that all sounds and samples used in their song have been cleared.

 

Rules

  • Maia has to be the centerpiece of your tune
  • All synth sounds should come from Maia
  • Duration: your song should be at least 2 minutes
  • All songs have to be original (i.e. no remixes or covers)
  • Only 3 winners with no cash alternative
  • Only one entry per participant
  • Song challenge begins 6th of July, 2018
  • Song challenge ends 22nd of July, 2018 @ 11:59 pm Stockholm time
  • To submit your song, simply post a copy-able link to it (Soundcloud, Allihoopa, YouTube…) in this thread (no submission form this time)
  • All entrants, when requested, must be prepared to provide evidence that the rules have been adhered to. This includes providing the Reason song file to verify that only Maia was used for synth sounds
  • Judges’ decision is final

 

What you are ALLOWED to use in your song (with copyright permission where applicable):

  • Maia for all synth sounds
  • Limited instrument recordings such as guitar, drums.
  • Effects: any native Reason, Rack Extension or VST (including FX which are part of another synth)
  • Utility devices: native Reason or Rack Extension
  • Any Drum-only and Vocal-only samples from Reason’s Soundbanks
  • Samples created via Maia (keep the original track as proof)
  • Recorded vocals

What you CANNOT use in your song:

  • Any synth that is not Maia (including Combinators featuring Maia that include any other synth as sound source)
  • No hardware synths
  • No programs outside of Reason
  • No copyrighted material

Submission

  • Your song must be submitted by posting a link to it in this thread before closing time.
  • After submitting your song you should not alter its URL anymore (altering privacy of songs on SoundCloud breaks the links compatibility).

We encourage participants to use #Maia, #PinkNoiseStudio and #ReasonTalk tags when uploading entries to SoundCloud or Allihoopa.
When sharing their entries on social media, if you feel so, tag @PinkNoise.Studio on Facebook, #PinkNoiseStudio (Twitter, Instagram) and @Reasontalk or #Reasontalk.
