Frequently asked questions about studio recording
How much studio time should I book?
Two hours is sufficient for most projects. This time includes arrival, a brief consultation, setup, soundcheck, recording, and breaks. If you come prepared, you'll have more time for the recording itself. If you're unsure, please give me a quick call beforehand.
Are my recordings then fully mixed?

Can I bring my own instrument?
Yes. Let me know in advance, and I'll prepare the appropriate setup.
How do I get my recordings?
