Audition Recording Details
Recording Process
1. Prepare the data → 2. Adjust recording levels while warming up → 3. Record the performance
Estimated Recording Time
For one demo song of about 4 to 5 minutes, 120 to 150 minutes is typical for recording, editing, and delivery.
Recording Style
We can work in the style that suits you best: recording several takes and comping the best parts, punching in only the sections you want to redo, or recording section by section.
Same-Day Delivery
Within your booked time, we can apply pitch correction and a basic mix to the recorded or filmed performance and deliver the finished data the same day. Editing usually takes about 30 minutes.
