Why The Setup Fee?
After looking at other studio pricing models we noticed a lot of hidden fees or upsidedown pricing.
- Large studio deals at $300, $400, sometimes $600 for an "All Day Rate" but not including Engineer or Editing, EQ ing, Mastering...
- Smaller private studios charging a rate that includes some engineering and editing at a PER SONG or a PER Hour rate of $50 - $350
Our way of thinking is this: Yes...we charge $25 to come, set up at your time and place of convenience, that covers our traveling and time. Why should you be charged for already set up equipment on the next song? or the song after that?

Songwriters! Heres the Math!
Artist X wants to demo 4 songs! decent 1instrument/1vocal type...
Large Studio - If a per day rate, whatever you can get done in an 8 hour session for the flat rate + engineering/editing/mixing
Smaller Studio - If given the "friend" flat rate of $45/song, Artist X pays $180 for the 4 tracked songs
OnLocation - $25/setup + 4 songs at $25 = $125. Depending on your schedule and need we can even do some of the editing and mixing during the session or within 24 hours. Press below to contact us!
