I received a critique of one of my songs back and I changed some of the verses as advised by the screener. Is it possible to have the same screener critique the song again, with the changes ? Or should it go to a different screener ?
Cheers
Tom

No - it's a one shot deal, do-overs. All you can do is wait for a similar listingsongmaster wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 3:30 pmI received a critique of one of my songs back and I changed some of the verses as advised by the screener.

Re: Critique question
My very first submission (and return) I sent back for a custom critique. I think the screener knew my circumstances (new member, first submission), or at least I assume the screeners have some basic info about the member being screened. The screener suggested I might get more from a custom critique
For something like this, you might want to consider a custom review ... it needs more focus and some of the more crucial elements to get forwarded.
and so I requested the same screener. I think it's easy enough to ask for a particular screener; they didn't give me the idea that it was taboo.
The short version is you can get the same screener, but it probably doesn't matter. It's not like a conversation about the piece; you ask specific, pointed questions that you want answered, and the screener does their best to comply. To be honest, the screeners hear so much stuff that they won't remember critiquing your piece the first time. So it's best to approach the custom critique process as if the screener is hearing for the first time. The questions you submit for the custom critique are the most important element, more important than the choice of screener. I hope that makes sense!

Oh I see...I've never had one to be fair. Just rely on the ears of my Co-writers or people who are more successful at this !CTWF wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 4:16 pmSounds more like a custom critique to me. Is there the option to request certain screeners?cosmicdolphin wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 3:34 pm

Re: Critique question
Sorry everyone. I should have stated that it was a "Custom" critique. Maybe the Administration can answer that one for me. I do Custom critiques so often, I just assumed everyone knew what I was talking about. Never assume they say
