Question on Road Rally Listening Panel-Instrumentals/Cue submissions

Post by Colleen » Wed Oct 21, 2020 10:10 am

Hi Folks--I'm noticing that there is no limit mentioned for number of instrumental/cues one can submit for the Road Rally listening panels?
Is this right? I feel like I might be missing something--?

Thanks for your feedback

Hey Colleen
I had the same question and contacted Taxi. There is no limit. However when they select random tracks for listening, they will skip a track if the member already had a song played at the panel.

Note to everyone: The listings all say your track cannot be signed with any publishers or libraries.

Good luck!
:D Casey

Curious. So if I do, say, submit 100 cues for one panel, my odds of being randomly selected are much higher than if I submit just one. It doesn't matter that I don't get picked again, after 'stuffing' the submission box I will have have ensured my chances of getting picked early. To be honest, it doesn't really seem right.

Maybe if each person gets one chance (regardless of how many submissions), and then when picked they get their choice of the multiple submissions? That seems more fair. Or paper-clip a USD20 bill to each submission after the first? :lol:

You'd have to ask Taxi if they will flag if someone submits a ton of tracks. At some point it can't possibly be worth the cost (100 cues = $500!). If you are seriously concerned, drop them a note. :D

Thanks for the reply, Casey. No, I'm not really concerned - just felt I'd take the though experiment's strategy to an extreme. Certainly not worth tons of cash, as members here will critique for free in the P2P.
