More and more colleges now require video submissions. This gives the judges a better overview of the performance and an idea of your stage presence. Video for auditions is done using a 2K GoPro setup with a tripod shot. Audition committees want a very honest, single-cam shot, and this works beautifully. The wider angle of the GoPro allows an intimate view of the performer, especially for instruments like drums or piano. Video audition prices include extra setup time and editing time (see Audition FAQ for more info).

Isn’t my phone recording good enough? Often, the answer is no. Although phones and digital recorders are handy for taping rehearsal or live shows, they contain cheap preamplifiers, even cheaper microphones, and sub-standard digital conversion. This all adds up to a drastic reduction in the harmonic detail and dynamics you want to hear in a critical recording. For those on a budget, or for auditions where a full studio setup is overkill, we do offer stereo recording using quality condenser microphones and high-speed preamps with frequencies extending into the 200kHz range. This allows for capturing the natural sound of your instrument on a relatively simple setup. The Simple Solution works best for soloists or duos only. For full band (jazz/rock/chamber music) auditions, see The Audition Tape. The Simple Solution includes up to four hours of recording.
