What is pyro Audio Creator 1.5?

pyro Audio Creator 1.5 is a collection of essential tools for creating, editing and publishing your music collection. Built on the same technology found in Cakewalk’s industry-leading SONAR digital audio workstation, with Audio Creator’s virtual toolbox, you are just a click away from recording and editing audio; burning and ripping CDs; cleaning and converting albums to CD or MP3; encoding, tagging, and organizing your sound library; backing up your files to data CD, DVD, or Blu-Ray; and publishing music to the Internet.

3. A free promotional campaign. And finally, the winner will receive a free promotional campaign on both AUDIOTUTS and Cakewalk websites, bringing you huge amounts of online exposure as an artist (make sure you have your audio shop ready!).

What do I need to do?

It’s pretty simple: create a five minute video tutorial that teaches the basics of pyro Audio Creator 1.5 and upload it to YouTube. How many of the basic elements of the software can you cover given five minutes without losing coherency?

Once you’ve created and uploaded your video, come back to AUDIOTUTS and fill in the registration form.

Please remember to read the full Competition Guidelines before you even get started on your video. You’ll need to include certain tags in your YouTube upload and stick to certain conditions in order to be eligible, and we don’t want to disqualify anybody who has spent considerable time on their video because of a small mistake.

Tell Your Friends

Whether you want to get people looking at your video (popular tutorials are usually good tutorials, after all) or just want to let your friends know about this competition, we’ve got two banners you can use to promote the competition or your video on your website. Feel free to use them!
