It's almost time for Honor Choir auditions for the Chicago Conference. Application forms will soon be available online, and sound recordings will be submitted by uploading Mp3 files. ACDA's Technology Committee has created videos explaining how to make an Mp3 file using either a Mac or a PC. These videos are available here:
- How to make an Mp3 using GarageBand (Mac users)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2p3cC2f5iU
- How to make an Mp3 using Audacity (Mac or PC users)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_jpjIX9mBs
Coming soon will be a video to walk the teacher through the application and uploading process. Visit the Honor Choir page at http://acda.org/honor-choirs for up-to-date details and information.
