How many hours do I get if I book a day?

To a certain extent, you are allowed to show up as early as you want, and stay as late as you want. If you end up going past midnight, I will not charge you another day (depending on how far into the night we go)

What kind of instruments are available?

By booking Redwood Studios, you have access to:

• 1960’s Marine White Pearl Slingerland drums (22, 16, 13)

• Ludwig Black Beauty Snare

• 1950’s Leedy Snare

• Aluminum “The Trash” Snare

• Zildjian K Constantinople Crash/Ride

• Vintage Zildjian Avedis Hi Hats

• Fender Telecaster Deluxe w/ Splittable Humbuckers

• Fender Stratocaster

• Vox AC30

• Generic P-Bass

How do I send files for you to mix?

You are welcome to send the raw multitracks through whatever method works best for you. Please make sure you bounce the files from the same start point in your session, and then inform me how many measures this is. I work in pro tools, so you are also welcome to send me the session file.

Please ensure that you’re sending stereo tracks as stereo files, and mono tracks as mono files, with processing taken off. Sending everything as a stereo track will delay the process, as it means I will have to go through hundreds of tracks and make them mono.

How many revisions do I get?

I advertise unlimited revisions. However, if we’re getting to a point where I don’t feel like the track is getting any better and we might’ve lost sight of what matters, then I will call it. This rarely happens, but if you want to avoid running into this issue then here are some helpful tips:

• Make sure you collect all your notes for the revision prior to informing me. Avoid taking up unnecessary revisions by telling me one note at a time.

• To speed up the process for all parties involved, please inform me of mix notes within a few days of receiving the mix from me. Waiting a couple weeks to provide me mix notes will needlessly elongate the process.

Can I replace parts after you’ve started a mix?

Totally! This is normal and happens often. Sometimes you hear something later that never occurred to you during the tracking process. You are welcome to send me replacement parts, but please do so in moderation.

Can I be present while you mix?

Yes, I’m okay with you being in the room while I work. Please allow me a few hours to get the mix going prior to your arrival. Attending in person can be helpful for in-real-time notes, but I also offer Zoom/Facetime mixes if you are unable to attend in person.
