Anyone down to participate in a contest in April for Autism Awareness month

[Paradox916]

There are quite a few of us here ether with kids on the spectrum, on the spectrum or suspected of being on the spectrum, and every year I try and do something: challenges, builds, demos. This year since I can’t think of anything myself So I want to do a contest, prizes so far my idea is a gift code so everyone can participate easily prizes will be based on number of participants the more participants the more I’m willing to fork out and if others what to help with prizes that is welcome.

The concept; try to make you play, new or old builds, 1-2 minute demos 3 min max, minimum 2 tracks ( can be anything) no knob turning “this is my clean tone,”but an actual idea rough or polished with an explanation of both the idea and the signal chain used

This is just the fast and loose idea that will be fully defined later. Right now I am sizing up if there is enough interest and commitment.

Choose all that apply

So, is the contest who's got the best chops or who can make a demo of a pedal?

 

[Paradox916]

You don’t have to have the best chops to have the most interesting ideas, this is about being creative. You can use one pedal or make a wall of sound, 1-3 minutes 3 minutes max. 2 tracks (parts) minimum they can be anything, vocals, guitar, drums, synth, harmonies, a drone note…, I’m trying to find out if enough people are interested.

I'd definitely be excited to hear the kinds of things people are making and read some explanations of the gear they used to make them.

Limited signal chains and knob spinning are great for showing what a pedal does and whether I want one, but seeing the full context of how people are using things is way more interesting.

I probably won't be able to participate, but obviously I'll be following along and would be more than happy to contribute to the prize.

I have a friend and a nephew in the spectrum. What are you thinking?
