Session Tips
Studio tips for making your session successful
Show Up Rested
Just like being prepared for the big game, getting a good nights rest and a good meal in the morning will lead to a great recording session! You'll keep your mind focused and waste less time struggling to crank out those riffs if you're alert and ready to record.
Bring Your Band (NOT Your Friends)
The more distractions you have, the less you focus on recording! We ask that you bring yourself, your band mates, and your equipment but that's all. Your friends will have plenty of time to listen back to your tracks when you get a finished mix, but while you're in the studio, we want you to focus on what you came here to do.
Be On Time
Just remember that every minute you're late is a minute gone from your recording time. Be sure to fully capitalize on your session by being on time (if not early) and ready to record!
Quality Over Quantitiy
If your undecided on what to record, or how much you can afford to record, pick your best songs and start with those. It's better to get two or three solid recordings down then to rush through an entire album and be unhappy with the final results.
Bring Backups
Make sure you have all the necessary equipment your going to need during your session. This includes extra mixes, USB sticks, and anything that has the potential to break during the session
Mistakes Do Happen
If you think that even professional musicians go into the studio and record every track in one shot then think again. Be prepared to play your material a few times through to really get the best sound and recordings that you can get.
Have Fun!
This is what it's really all about. You're in the studio and recording your music to share with all your friends and fans. It's supposed to be about the music and the fun you have making it. So leave the ego at the door and be ready to have a great time doing something that you love to do.
