Financial Planning...

Recently me and Alie got in touch with a studio to see how much it'd cost to get our EP recorded and mixed. They had a good industry standard equipment list in which we thought was very good as seen as it was fairly cheap to record there, the equipment list was provided on the website and consists of:

  • Izotope 
So above you can see the long list of industry standard equipment that is available in this studio. The price rates of using this studio for recording would be £350 a day for a full band recording however, as we're doing an acoustic EP instead it would only cost us £200 a day. We also worked out how long it would take us roughly, we came to the conclusion that it would take us around 4-5 days at the most if we went there fully prepared. We found that this was the best studio out of all of the ones we looked at.

Thanks for reading!

Chazzy!
