Rap recording in a Leipzig recording studio

You will receive a complete, finished song.

• Personally supervised recording session at the Leipzig recording studio
• Preparation, soundcheck and professional microphone setup
• Recording multiple takes, doubling, ad-libs and variations
• Comping and precise editing of the best takes
• Treatment of disturbing breathing and mouth noises
• Basic timing corrections and alignment of the vocal tracks
• Auto-Tune in automatic mode
• Creative vocal mix with matching effects
• Professional mixing and mastering
• Two bundled rounds of changes
• Final delivery as WAV and MP3

After your approval, you will receive a technically release-ready song that you can use for Spotify, YouTube, and upload via common distributors. This requires that you own the necessary rights to the beat, lyrics, and any other content used.

Session time and procedure in the studio

• 1 Song: up to 2 hours of session time
• 2 songs: up to 3 hours of session time
• 3 Songs: up to 4 hours of session time

The session time includes preparation in the studio, soundcheck, recording, doubling, adlibs, creative variations, short listening checks, possible photo or video recordings and the joint conclusion in the studio.

Important: Editing, mixing, mastering, and the actual post-production work are done separately after the studio session. This work is not deducted from your booked session time.

Processing time and changes

You'll usually receive your first mix within 5 to 7 days after your studio session. If no major changes are needed, your fully finished song can often be completed within this timeframe.

I usually implement change requests promptly, often within about a day. The exact duration depends on the scope of the change and my current workload.

• Two bundled rounds of changes are guaranteed and included.
• I often resolve minor final corrections fairly and amicably.
• New recordings are not a normal mix change.
• Major changes to the arrangement or a fundamentally new sound may incur additional charges.

This ensures fair collaboration: You receive sufficient scope for meaningful corrections, while extensive new work is discussed transparently.

Standard included, Premium Melodyne optional

You will always receive a fully edited song. Comping, clean cuts, removal of unwanted breath and mouth noises, basic timing corrections, vocal track alignment, and automatic Auto-Tune are all included.

Premium Melodyne is the additional manual fine-tuning of one or more finished, final vocal tracks. Relevant syllables and phrases are individually checked and, if necessary, optimized in terms of pitch, timing, transitions, and note length.

A vocal track is not the same as a single take. This refers, for example, to a fully assembled main vocal track or a standalone hook track.

Don't have a finished beat or song yet?

You can also request a rap recording even if your project isn't fully prepared yet. Beat development, custom beat production, arrangement, song structure, songwriting, and other production services can be arranged separately.

Give me a quick call or send me a message on WhatsApp if you're unsure which service best suits your idea. I'll give you an honest assessment of whether this complete rap package is the right fit or if another production step would be more sensible first.

This is how your finished song is created.

1. Send beat and reference: You send me your beat and, if desired, a reference song before the appointment.
2. Adjust sound: We discuss the desired vocal sound and the intensity of Auto-Tune.
3. Record parts: Verses, hooks, doublings and adlibs are recorded in a concentrated manner in appropriate sections.
4. Edit song: I edit the takes and develop a clear, powerful vocal sound from them.
5. Check the mix: You will receive the first mix version and can use your revision rounds.
6. Receive final files: After you approve, you will receive WAV and MP3 files.

Here's how to prepare for the session

• Practice the text, flow, and cues as confidently as possible.
• Send the beat in advance as a WAV or high-quality MP3 file.
• Bring your text printed out or on your smartphone.
• Let me know if you want Auto-Tune to sound natural or clearly audible.
• If needed, send a reference song for the desired sound style.
• Check if you are allowed to publish and commercially use the beat.

What is not automatically included

• Beat production or the purchase of a beat license
• Complete songwriting or extensive lyric revision
• Manual Melodyne editing without a booked premium option
• Professional photoshoot or music video
• Edited and post-processed social media videos
• The complete DAW project, used plugins and presets
• New recordings within a normal mix change

These services can be requested separately and agreed upon transparently, tailored to your project.
