This year, there is a prize money of 2 x 1000 € for the best mix and the best remix of our contest song. In addition, there are Special Awards for outstanding mixes, donated by Neumann, Sennheiser, Toontrack, Sommer Cable, ADAM Audio, Ableton, Konig & Meyer and HOFA. The public voting is also considered for some of the Special Awards – it definitely pays to get some likes.
HOFA says 100 max analyses are raffled from all uploaded songs. This analysis gives you a feedback to try your mix and points out strengths and weaknesses – that alone makes your work worthwhile!

The tempo of the song is 90 bpm, the tracks are on hand as 24 bit wav files in 44.1 kHz and 96 kHz.
