(Please note: Recording, mixing and mastering are all separate processes and will be calculated separately.)

Recording

Weekdays - £200 per day. Weekends - £250 per day

What's included:

Setting up instruments, microphones and patching to the desk.
Recording of guide tracks and individual parts.
Use of studio owned instruments or equipment.
Rough mix of your work (for quality checking purposes only).

Length of sessions:

This will be dependent on how many songs you're trying to record and your availability. For an album, longer days are preferred to ensure that any extensive setting up (drums mics for example) is totally finished with. Shorter sessions can be planned but this may require additional set up (again, microphone instruments for example) and therefore, more hours.

For an extra £100 per day, you can take advantage of this:

What's included:

Musician who can add drums, bass, guitar, piano, vocals as needed.
Help with production choices and additional elements like percussion.
Advice on Songwriting and composition.

Mixing

£20 per hour

(Depending on amount of elements recorded)

What's included:

Adjust and balance individual and groups of tracks from your session, into an overall great sounding mix. This can be tracks recorded with us or from another studio session.
Use processes such as de-essing, equalisation and compression to individual tracks, groups of tracks, and the overall mix, to make sure that each instrument is heard, sounds crisp and remains clear.
Apply effects such as panning, reverb and delay to enhance the sound of each instrument and the overall mix.

How long will it take?:

This really depends on how many tracks you've recorded and the number of individual parts on those tracks. The more instruments and parts, the more elements there are to adjust and balance. You are welcome to join me with mixing and I welcome your collaboration :)

Mastering

£35 per track

(Depending on specs and format required)

What's included:

Balance sonic elements and optimise the track for playback on a variety of systems and formats (for uploading to streaming services and creating physical media such as CDs or vinyl).
Apply equalisation, dynamic range compression and effects to enhance the sound of the overall track.
Carry out a final 'quality check', to ensure no errors or technical issues are present in your track. This could be a tweak to the mix or perhaps a 'pop' on an instrument that wasn't picked up earlier.

How long will it take?:

The time it takes can vary, depending on the specs and formats you've requested. General turnaround is approx. 2 weeks but this can be negotiated.
