Terms And Conditions
Yep, even rock & roll has fine print.
Proposal
For album projects before we start, I'll send you a proposal covering your job. which you will need to read and confirm. Single and EP projects are ad-hoc.
Payment
All album projects are paid in advance, no exceptions. That way it doesn't matter if you take a month to get back to me after I deliver a mix, drag your heels for five months over revisions because you joined a circus, global pandemics take over planet earth ( these things have all happened) Godzilla destroys Tokyo, or whatever other situation people come up with. If you are booking on EngineEars - the upside is you can choose the actual date your mix will be started. Please note if you are on any kind of discounted rate, off platform - this does not apply
Extra Stuff
The deliverable is a stereo mix ready for mastering. If you require anything extra, that takes more time and will be charged accordingly. This includes radio edits, files for live performance, alternate versions, exports of tracks, or anything else past the job of delivering a finished stereo mix. Please note: There is no such thing as "mixed stems" due to the way the bus routing works during a normal mix ( i.e - everything goes to buses, then also stereo bus processing which is not present on individual track exports) so do not expect exports to 100% exactly reconstruct a mix when played together. It will be as close as possible, however. If you DO have a special stems requirement, please ask in advance and I will be able to accommodate it because I can plan ahead in the mix setup.
Revisions
Once your track is mixed, you will notified by email and it will be posted on the shiny full-quality streaming revisions system. All revisions will be added by the client directly in the revisions system with time-stamped notes. It is impossible for me to keep track of multiple projects if people can send notes twelve different ways, so this allows me to stay organised and for us to ensure we are talking about the same thing at the same point on a track, and the same version.
Number of Revisions
Once the first mix is uploaded you will have three sets of revisions. Experience tells me that 90% of tracks will be completed within the first three revisions, and this motivates less focused artists to really concentrate on the revisions process. If you have a band, or multiple interested parties, like a label for example - talk to each other first and put the revisions in at the same time. Further revisions are 20GBP/round.
Revisions After Mastering
Anything in life is possible as long as you have the budget. Extra revisions will be billed, and you will probably charged again for a re-run of the master by the mastering engineer.
Delivery
When we're all done you will receive an email that will contain a dropbox download link to the approved mixes. You are responsible for archival of these files
Credits
By engaging me to mix your project you agree to visibly credit as follows on all physical and digital platforms where possible, including liner notes, your audio distributor metadata, on YouTube, or other video platforms:
