DON'T KNOW HOW TO RECORD? If you've never made a recording and don't know where to begin, you can find a microphone inexpensively and also free applications and tutorials online. FOR A QUICK, SIMPLE WAY TO RECORD RIGHT NOW: Create a free SoundCloud page. Click the “Record” button. Set your recording to “Private” (so that it will still be unpublished when you enter). Then you will see how to download your recordings. 

(Our contest submittable page accepts both MP3 and WAV files.)
