Sessions & Materials
Studio time includes normal engineer breaks — meals, rest, and lavatory visits. Additionally, your masters and session files are your responsibility. We back up session files regularly. Even
so, bring a Mac-formatted hard drive and take a copy home for safekeeping. Furthermore, if you break something beyond normal wear and tear, you cover the repair. Finally, all permissions, insurance, and releases are the client’s responsibility.

Music Production Projects
If you are dissatisfied with results at any point, we can suspend or cancel the project. However, cancelled projects forfeit all payments made to that point.

Musician Services
Most of our team sings and plays multiple instruments. As a result, we include our musician services at no extra charge. Alternatively, we maintain a roster of professional session players
and will gladly connect you with them. Any arrangement with those players is directly between you and them — negotiate your own terms.
If you prefer, we can organize the entire project. That includes hiring musicians and helping with songwriting and arranging. Furthermore, we guide you from start to finish. We also offer full music production services where we hire the session musicians on your behalf.
In short, let’s talk about what works best for your situation.
