MUSIC
Competitors must provide music for all events, as appropriate.
Competition music for all events that require music must be submitted electronically via
EntryEeze by the music deadline of September 1, 2016 11:59 pm.
After you have paid for your events, the system will prompt you to upload your music for each event that requires
music. If your music is not available at that time, you can logout of your account and return later to upload your music
by going to the “competition” tab and then selecting “my music”.
Your music must meet the following criteria. If you have questions about what format you have, please contact your
coach and get a new version of your music that meets the criteria listed below.
Music Criteria:
1) File Format: MP3 (the online system will automatically check this)
2) Bit Rate: 192 kbps or higher (this will be checked by the music chairperson and they may request you upload a
corrected file)

4) Leaders and trailers (the silence or "dead space" before and after the actual start and end of the program
music) may not exceed two (2) seconds. We prefer that there be NO leaders or trailers at all. Excessive
leaders and trailers may disrupt the playing of the music during competition.
Competitors must also bring a copy of their competition music on CD as a backup in case of technical difficulties and
must be turned in at the registration desk at the time of check-in. Only CDs (standard CD-R format only) will be
accepted. CD-RWs will NOT be accepted due to compatibility issues. CDs must be clearly marked with the

CD turned in at the Registration Desk is reserved for use during the event.
Please keep additional copies of your music readily available rink side during competition events. Music may be picked
