Frequently asked questions

Short answers by topic. Binding text is in our terms and privacy policy; rates are on Services. Practical deep dives live in the guides section.

Booking

How do I reserve a session?

Use the contact form, call +43 1 546 78 90 or email [email protected]. Within 2 working days we send a slot and written quote. The date is firm after you accept and pay the 30% deposit.

What should my enquiry include?

Service (e.g. vocal recording or mixing), track count, rough duration, reference tracks and preferred dates. For podcasts: format and number of hosts; for bands: instruments and multitrack needs.

Can I book by phone?

Yes — we take details on the call and email the quote for confirmation. Without written acceptance and deposit the slot stays open.

Do you offer last-minute slots?

When the desk is free, yes. Mark the message as urgent; we check calendar and staff. Short-notice bookings follow the same cancellation rules as standard dates.

Can minors attend alone?

Sessions from age 16. Below that only with written consent from a legal guardian who books, pays and attends if required.

At the studio

When should I arrive?

Ten minutes before start so check-in and setup sit inside booked time. Late arrival shortens recording time unless a buffer was agreed.

What should I bring?

Lyrics, charts, stems or multitracks on SSD/USB, headphones if you prefer your own, water. For vocals: warm clothes and rest — see prepare your voice.

Can someone sit in the control room?

One or two guests are fine. Larger groups please announce ahead so monitoring and layout work.

Are breaks included on long days?

Half- and full-day bookings include short breaks. You may eat in the lounge; strong smells in the booth are avoided for mic hygiene.

What if gear fails?

We log the issue and agree a fair fix — reschedule or partial adjustment per terms. Hardware you bring is checked before we roll.

Files and delivery

Which formats do you deliver?

Default is 24-bit WAV at project sample rate; stems and podcast loudness as quoted. Mastering options: choose mastering formats; podcasts: formats and loudness.

How do I receive files?

Download link or your drive — fixed in the quote. Large multitrack sets are split into packages for stable transfers.

How long do you keep sessions?

How many mix revisions are included?

2 rounds with batched feedback while arrangement and track count match the quote. Extra scope is re-quoted.

Can I take raw takes away?

Yes when agreed in the quote. Unedited takes may be listed as a separate package; we discuss storage before the session.

Rights and use

Who owns the recordings?

After full payment for the agreed service you receive usage rights in the recordings produced for you, as set out in our terms. We do not keep hidden label shares.

May you publish reference clips?

Only with your written approval per track. Default is no public use of your takes on our site or social channels.

Do you train AI on client audio?

No. Session material is not used to train generative models. AI images on this site are illustrative only — see disclaimer.

What about third-party samples?

You confirm samples and beats are cleared. We cannot provide legal clearance but flag obvious risks.
