WRITING
Sit down, one-on-one, with some of Nashville's top songwriters and get the inspiration you need to finish that song you've been working on or to write an entirely new song from scratch. Our team of songwriters covers a wide range of genres, styles, and types of music. This allows you to create a song that's both competitive with some of today's biggest hits and a truly unique work of art.
PRE-PRODUCTION
Now that your songs are written, it's time to make sure they're ready to be recorded. To ensure a quick and steady workflow and to prevent extra recording studio costs, you'll spend time with our record producer, proofing the arrangement, charting parts, dialing in tempos and tracking a work-tape for the studio musicians. If you're recording with your own band, this is where "practice makes perfect" comes into play. Everyone will spend time perfecting their parts so there's no confusion when you step into the music studio.
TRACKING
This is where the magic happens! You'll be joined by our record producer in one of the many Nashville recording studio's we partner with to professionally record your songs. All parts, except those that are programmed, are recorded live. Overdubs are tracked as need with exceptional detail given to the vocal.
EDITING
After tracking is completed, your songs project is edited. This includes cleaning up any timing inconsistencies, vocal processing such as comping and pitch correction and eliminating any noise. Editing also serves to help the mix engineer move through the mix process easier.
MIXING
Mixing is essential to bringing proper balance to your song. Clarity, space, impact and overall sound quality are polished during this process. Once a mix is complete, you'll proof the song. Once you're happy with the mix, your song will be sent to a mastering engineer in a specialty recording studio for the finishing touches.
MASTERING
The final stage in the song recording process. A highly trained mastering engineer will take the mixes you approved and standardize them for various formats. Mastering is essential to ensure your songs not only have a similar sound and loudness, but to make sure they will be heard in the greatest detail when played from different media.
