About Our Studio Rates
Every song production is different in complexity, track count, and style. The base prices above are for that specific service only. If your project requires multiple services such as recording + mixing + mastering, we will work with you to develop a price that works for both of us. We do offer some special pricing bundles from time to time. Those can be found on our booking page.

Understanding Recording Studio Rates
Below are some examples of our rates for producing, recording, mixing, and mastering your songs so you get a feel for prices.
Recording
Vocalist with accompanying instrument, would range in price from $100-200 depending on how many vocal and instrument tracks are being recorded.
For a rock band with drums, bass, two guitars, and singer, prices range from $300-500 on average.
Our studio prices DO NOT include mixing and mastering unless explicitly specified in a bundle package.
Mixing
Mixing prices also vary typically by track count, complexity, production, and how quick the turnaround is.
For example:
A 25-track song where no production is needed (only mixing), price would range approximately $80-120 with a 3 day turnaround.
A song with 25 tracks and additional production is needed could run from $200-300 with a 5 day turnaround.
Mastering
Prices for mastering are generally fixed. We charge $75 per song.
If you are mixing and/or recording with BeMelodic, our recording and mixing prices include mastering at no additional cost.
What do You Get?
Recording
For recording only, you will be provided with raw audio recordings (stems).
This would include all the takes.
No edits are included.
Mixing
Mixing includes editing, removing, adding, and/or modifying the audio stems.
It may included adding additional content as agreed on.
Mixing also includes a balancing of the sound levels, EQ, compression, and in some cases the use of limiters.
The result of the mixing process is a final mix that is ready for mastering.
Mastering
Mastering your music is a process designed to make the music ready for public distribution (spotify, youtube, etc.)
We require a single final mix for this process. Mastering cannot fix inherent issues in the mix.
