Judge's criteria for grading

Submitted mixes are forwarded to the judges in advance of the convention, allowing judges the opportunity to evaluate the recordings during that time in a listening environment of their choice. During the first day of the Summit, the judges will make the final decision as to the three finalists for each category. The finalists will then be announced at the listening session on Sunday, March 20th. The three finalists will be asked to make a short (10 minutes or less including playback) presentation at this session. These presentations shall occur during the Mixing Competition session at the convention in front of an audience of convention attendees and the judging panel. The judges will then be given an opportunity to give comments and ask questions of the participant prior to making their final decision. The awards will be presented to the finalists on the last day of the Summit.
