Services and rates
From an hour of vocals in the booth to mastering a full album: this is what we do and what it costs. Open a service for the workflow, what the price covers and common questions.
We record in three rooms on the Overtoom and finish the result in-house. You can book a single service, such as just mixing for tracks you recorded elsewhere, or the whole path from band recording to mastering. Not sure what you need? Describe your project on the contact page and we will help you decide.
