I specifically haven't had that situation but I expect it at some point, considering all my stuff is at his or her disposal. Anytime there's been a problem, usually the engineer will ask something like, "is there something wrong (with so and so gear)?" Most of the time I can't trace back when someth...

I'm moving from Minneapolis, MN to Mesa, Arizona later this month (late January 2007) and I'm hoping to find a new studio "home" (or several) to either freelance or staff within the Phoenix/Tempe/Mesa area. If anyone can point me toward some good places to check out, that would be great. I'm looking...

I've worked at both Pachyderm and The Terrarium, in Minneapolis, and you'd probably have a better experience at The Terrarium. From my experience, Pachyderm is nice (plus, there's a whole "motel" on premise) but it's hard to book time there, especially without a great amount of notice. Also, if you ...

If you want to be legit, it would be best to file for a state business license (cheap, at most $50), get an entertainment lawyer (a roughly $250 retainer), get an accountant that can understand deductions, depreciation, and service income (roughly $250 a year). Then you'll be set. The license is a o...

I record local unsigned bands and I charge $50 per song. The per song rate has worked well because the bands know exactly what the project will cost and so far nobody has tried to take advantage of the fixed rate. The other reason I go with a fixed rate is because it gives me the discretion to put ...

I took a good 5 years back in the mid-90's to try/find the monitors I could use, successfully. I'm talking other monitors that were either considered close or mid. JBL, Auratone, Yamaha, KRK, Alesis, Tannoy, Genelec, and Mackie. I really like the Mackie HR824's. The ones I still swear by are the fir...

It depends... when I had my own studio with over $200,000 invested in gear, I charged $300 a day (10 - 12 hour days, sometimes longer if we were in-the-groove). I did weekend packages that consisted of Friday thru Sunday @ $900. Weekday/weeknights ( Monday thru Thursday) I'd charge $30 an hour. But ...

I'll throw him or her at the console, front and center, on the very first day. That's after we get mics set-up and levels... then after I'm at the desk, we're a few takes in, and I show the person the general ins and outs... it's all him or her for a little while. I'll tag-team it. I'll tell the ban...
