FAQ
Q: What should I bring to a recording session?
A: Bring your instrument, any pedals or effects you use, extra strings/picks/sticks,
a tuner, and any reference tracks. For vocalists: warmed up and hydrated. Bring
printed lyric sheets or charts. The more prepared you are, the more studio time
you spend creating rather than organizing.
Q: How long does mixing and mastering take?
A: Mixing typically takes 1–3 days per song. Mastering takes 1 day per song after
an approved mix. You'll receive a first sample for feedback and we'll refine from
there. Rush turnarounds are available — ask when booking.
Q: Can I sit in on my session?
A: Absolutely — we encourage it, especially for mixing sessions where real-time
feedback is the fastest path to a result you love. Remote clients can do video
call check-ins at key milestones.
Q: How do I send tracks for remote mixing or mastering?
A: Once you book, we'll send file upload instructions. We accept WAV or AIFF at
24-bit/44.1kHz or higher, exported as individual tracks (stems) all starting at
the same point in the timeline. Label them clearly (e.g. KICK_IN, VOX_LEAD_01).
WeTransfer and Dropbox both work fine.
Q: What if I'm on a tight budget?
A: Contact us and be upfront about it. We built this studio on the belief that every
artist deserves quality recordings. We'll tell you honestly what's achievable and
find the most value-efficient path for your project.
Q: Do you work with first-time podcasters?
A: Yes — many podcast clients are launching their first show. We can advise on mic
setup, recording environment, episode structure, and hosting platforms in addition
to editing and mastering. The Edit Only package ($75/ep) is a great starting point.
