One-year back-up of your project is included in all prices. If you happen to lose your files we deliver them again one time for free. For further copies we charge a small but reasonable fee.
Please send us WAV or AIFF files in uncompressed stereo with a bit depth of at least 16bits (and max 24bits) with a sampling frequency of 44.1kHz up to 96kHz. No pre-processing using limiting or normalising.
We are giving our clients one set of revisions on your mixed or mastered track. After that, however, any further alterations will be charged.
Depending on your project we offer packages and special prices for longer sessions. Please send us an e-mail describing your project, budget and how much time you would like to spend in the studio, what type of recording your looking for etc. and we will come back with a suggestion as quickly as possible. All prices are excluding VAT 25%.
RECORDING
At Studio Helicon you can record a single instrument, lay down vocals for a song or record a full length album with an entire band of live instrument players. Depending on your project and budget, we always try to work out a reasonable solution. The price indicates the hourly rate for shorter projects, often lasting from an hour up to one day. We offer weekend, single song and album packages exclusively for recording as well as including mixing and mastering.
50 € / hour
PRODUCTION
In this case we are referring to production from an editing point of view. If you have a song with files in need to be produced, edit, re-amped or similar you can both send the files digitally or bring them to the studio.
50 € / hour
MIXING
Mixing have become our most commonly requested service. With a wide range of some of the most high-quality plug-ins combined with a selection of analog outboards, we are trying to create mixes in accordance to the customer demand. Regular mixing-based editing is included in the price, but in case the song project is in need of vast editing, that kind of editing will be charged separately. Of course all such matters are discussed with the client beforehand and negotiated to benefit your request and your needs.
40 € / song
MASTERING
Songs longer than ten minutes are considered as two songs due to the extra amount of time it takes to work with the project.
