Awards programmes have always needed to accommodate more than just written entries. With v2.46, entrants can now submit audio directly — and judges can play it back without ever leaving the entry — making the whole judging experience noticeably more delightful for programmes that involve music, podcasts, radio, voice-over work, or any other audible craft.
Two audio types
Upload directly, or link to a streaming URL — your choice.
Inline playback
Judges play audio in-place, no external tab needed.
Streaming-friendly
Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music, Tidal, YouTube Music.
A joy for judges
Especially loved by anyone judging music or podcast awards.
Two new question types, side by side
Whether entrants have their audio hosted somewhere already, or they'd rather upload directly, v2.46 has them beautifully covered.
Audio Upload
Direct file uploads for entrants who want to submit audio straight from their device — no third-party hosting needed.
File limit: 40MB (as with other uploads)
Audio Link
Streaming URLs from the audio platforms entrants already use. Great for professionally-produced audio.
Inline players — a delight for judges
Here's what really makes the difference: both new question types render as inline players when the entry is viewed. Judges can hit play, listen right there in the entry, pause, skip and continue their review — all without opening a single external tab.
For anyone who's ever judged a big pile of music, podcast or radio entries by juggling browser tabs and external players, this small change genuinely transforms the experience.
Perfect for
Music awards. Podcast awards. Radio, voice-over and audio production.
Anywhere audio is central to what's being judged, these new question types make submission easier for entrants and judging noticeably more pleasant for the humans doing the listening.
Just drop them in your entry form
Audio Upload and Audio Link work exactly like any other question type in the awards entry form builder. Drop one in wherever it makes sense, configure it, and you're done — entrants and judges get the new experience automatically from that point on.
A small addition to the entry form, but a huge upgrade to how any audio-centric awards programme feels — for everyone involved.
