Studio Pricing
Rates & Pricing Information, Basic info:

All new clients will be required to pay a deposit for the studio time.  The amount of the deposit may vary.  We have a minimum of two hours in order to book time with us.  We also have a 48 hour cancellation policy.  If you cancel with less than 48 hours notice, your deposit will be forfeited.  If you cancel with 48 hours or more, your deposit will be credited and can still apply to the re-scheduled session.  

Studio rate:  Our basic hourly rate can range from $50-$65 per hour.  We do consider any budget restrictions on an individual basis, and can customize a package specifically for your project.  The more details you can give us about your project the better we can assist you with a quote. 

Location recording: $125./ hour.  We bring everything nessessary for a quality recording to your location/event. We can then bring the recorded audio back to our studio and mix it.  Once your project is back here at the studio, our regular studio rates apply.  Please give us as much detail about your location project so that we can serve you best.  2 hour minimum.

Notes: 
1.  Studio time will be charged by the hour or by the project. The pricing will be agreed upon before the start of the project.
2.  Master tapes, CDs, DVDs or Hard Drives will not leave the studio until the bill has been paid in full. 

3.  Studio time may be sold with or with out an engineer. In the case of the client bringing in their own engineer, the guest engineer must pre-qualify with someone from Bomb Shelter Recording Studios. An assistant engineer will be provided if necessary. 

Media:
1.  Client will provide their own media. This will be in the form of an external hard drive. (ask for specifications)

2.  If requested by the client, the studio will save active projects on a house drive as a safety back-up. Once the project is finished, the project may be erased from the house drive in order to free up more space for other clients.

3.  Time to save material from the client drive to the house drive will be charged as studio time. 


For those on a tight budget...
We try to be as flexible as possible to accomodate everyone who wants to record. Here are some additional options/suggestions to help you jump start your recording experience here with us at Bomb Shelter.

Room 1 Recording Options:

Room 1: This room is part of the rehearsal studios and is tied in to the recording studio via an audio snake. This room is 20'x20' with a 10' ceiling. We can do rehearsal recordings, as well as multitrack recordings in this room.  The following is our pricing based on using this room to record. You have several options for pricing as well as additional gear that may be rented while using this room.  Some of these options are our least expensive and are definately a great value.  The recordings will sound great and can be used to promote your band, sell at a gig, or whatever you like.

This is a three hour block of time. The price includes a master cd, as well as the three hour block of time. This does not include the rental of any gear, drums or amps, if needed.

In addition to the cd your project will also be multitracked and recorded to a hard drive. You may bring in your own drive, then take it and finish it at home, or are welcome to book additional sessions to overdub or mix the multitracked project here at our studio. This gives you added flexibility and allows you to change or add to your music at any time.
