| Season chronology | |
This season introduced several rule changes. The blind auditions were extended from six to seven episodes. The battle rounds were simplified by permitting coaches to steal only one losing contestant, rather than two as in the previous season, and by removing the sing-off. Consequently, each coach advances with eight contestants to the live shows, mirroring the format of Season Three. Additionally, the jury/televote split in the semi-final was adjusted from 50/50 to 40/60.
The season finale aired on December 19, 2014. Tiberiu Albu, initially mentored by Smiley, but stolen by Chirilă in the battle rounds, was declared winner of the season. It was Chirilă's first victory as a coach and the first time a stolen contestant had won the competition.
Overview
Early decisions
In March 2014, ProTV announced their intention to turn season 4 into a children's competition,[3] according to The Voice Kids format, but they changed their minds a month later and decided to have a competition for people ages 16 and up, as in previous years.[4]
ProTV also revamped the set of the show and used better sound equipment compared to previous seasons.[5]
Personnel changes
Former coach Horia Brenciu left the show[4] and was replaced with Tudor Chirilă.[2][6]
Former producer Mona Segall resigned from the MediaPro trust in April 2014 and moved to the rival channel Antena 1, together with her entire team.[7] The orchestra led by George Natsis followed them, stating that they wanted to continue working together.[8] These decisions came in the context of a controversial series of dismissals and resignations from the media trust at the beginning of 2014,[9] influenced by changes made by the then-newly appointed CEO of ProTV, Aleksandras Česnavičius, who was implementing a cost-saving strategy.[10][11]
The fourth season of the show was produced by an international team co-ordinated by Peter Majeský and Melanie Triebel, who had previously worked on German, Czech and Slovak television productions.[12]
The dance crew of the show, led by Edi Stancu, also migrated to Antena 1, and was replaced by the newly formed PRO Dance Crew, led by Emil Rengle.[13][14]
Oana Tache replaced Vlad Roșca as the social media correspondent.[15]

The battles
After the blind auditions, each coach had fourteen contestants for the battle rounds, which aired from October 31 to November 14, 2014. Coaches began narrowing down the playing field by training the contestants. Each episode featured eight or ten battles consisting of pairings from within each team, and each battle concluding with the respective coach eliminating one of the two contestants. Each coach could steal one losing contestant from another team, thus saving them from elimination. There was no sing-off at the end of the battles.
