I'm new here, but I think that really you are not going to have a clear line for seperating "a professional producer, from amatures, on any grounds other than 'what do you file your taxes as." But there are some good hobbiest producers out there too. Everyone has a breaking point.
I originally clicked reply to volunteer me as the 'line', that is anyone who writes music at my level will forever not be a professional, sorta stupid.
I'm not professional I know that, but I do spend a large portion of my freetime making music, probably approaching what a professional may.
Here is a copy of my latest track draft.. I'm new to the hardcore sound and still havn't approached the level of sound I would expect from a professional...
note though that only a handful of tracks released I think are 'releasable', a lot of music I hear that is released, frankly isn't that good.
I do have a handful of tracks I think are quality releases
here are three recent listens that are examples:
Nu Foundation - Take Me Over (Like This mix)
Force & Styles - Shining Down (Slipmatt remix)
BALLISTIC BOOTLEGS Listen / Youth Of A Nation
The thing is though just cause people make 'different, non liked perhaps music' doesn't mean they arn't producing.
I think that is a hard one, and it just comes down to telling people they arn't good enough yet. And make an exclusive cleqe
I'm interested in hearing the music of those that do get in...
here is my latest

your idea of having it as a prize for winning site compo's is a good one, if you are going for popular music approach to quality.
I think most people who are hobbiest music makers such as me, know that we arn't 'professional producers' I myself don't even consider myself a 'producer' just a music writer.
But at the same time, much of the music I listen to doesn't appeal. There are good tracks out there though.
