Recording Studio F.A.Q’s

Why use your recording services?

We want to help you make the best music possible. The music that is put out not only represents you, but also us. It is in our best interest to make you sound the best possible. We have the tools and experience to help you make the best music and get it distributed for listening.

Tell me more about the process.

The process starts with the song. If you have one or more ready for recording we can record at our studio or one of the great local studios. If you are still writing the music, as a producer and musician, we can help with ideas to finish your song. During the recording process we will be your producer and engineer, listening to the song, the performance, and making changes and recommendations to get the best out of the recording.

A simple orchestration or just adding vocals to a beat can usually be recorded in 2 hours and then another 2-3 hours for mixing.

We mix and produce the track(s) at our studio. This allows us to be out of the recording environment (if another studio is used) and in a place where we know and trust our equipment. When mixing is complete, we will master your music. You, the artist, have a choice when it comes to mastering. We will perform a very basic level of mastering (loudness, minor EQ changes), but do recommend using another mastering engineer for this process. A true mastering engineer will have specialized equipment for the process and have a different perspective on the song(s). We have a number of mastering engineers that we can reach out to and trust them with your music.

The completed song is then submitted to Distrokid for distribution. We use Distrokid because they are one of the top companies to distribute music and make sure that you get paid from the largest number of points available. 

Can't I do this myself?

Yes. You can be your own record label and sign up for Distrokid to distribute your music. We still recommend hiring us as your producer(s) so you can have another person critically listen and make your music sound its best.

You will also have to sign up for ASCAP, find a collection agency to collect all royalties owed to you, provide additional promotion online, etc.

If you select us to be your record label, we now have a vested interest in gaining as much visibility to your music as possible. It's not just distributing your music, but all the other things you spend your time doing when you should be building your brand. Distributing your music, publishing rights, finding a mastering engineering you can trust, finding a studio to record in, are just a small sample of everything we do as your label. Sure we take a percentage (not in the confusing way of the other labels), but that also provides us incentive to push your music more.
