About booking
How booking
works.
Tap any Book button and you pick everything right here: the engineer, the day and time or your songs, and the price. The only EngineEars page you’ll see is the checkout.
The steps
- Tap Book. Pick recording time, or mixing and mastering.
- Pick it all. For a session: the engineer, the day, the start time and how many hours. For a mix or a master: the engineer, the service and how many songs. The price shows at every step.
- Type your artist name and tap Book now. That sets the booking up on EngineEars with everything filled in.
- Pay on the EngineEars checkout. A session is yours once it’s paid; until then the time stays open for anyone. A mix or master starts once it’s paid.
Recording sessions
- In person in Studio A, Knightdale, NC, with the engineer you pick.
- The price is the room plus your engineer: Studio A is $22/hr. With Eric it’s $67/hr all-in, with Dillon $52/hr all-in.
- Sessions run 2 to 8 hours. Longer sessions cost less per hour: 8 hours with Eric works out to about $56/hr.
- Book at least 24 hours ahead with Eric and 12 hours ahead with Dillon. The calendar only shows times that are really open.
- The current promo goes on your booking by itself. See Promos.
Mixing and mastering
- Remote, worldwide. Turnaround is 3 to 5 business days; ask before you book if you need it rushed.
- Eric: 2-track mix $199, full-stem mix $499, mastering $129, per song. The full-stem mix comes mastered, with heavy discounts for bulk purchasing. Working with a budget? Tap Book, pick mixing, and text or email Eric.
- Dillon: 2-track mix $100, full-stem mix $130, Dolby Atmos mix $200, mastering $50, per song. Add mastering to a mix for $50 a song.
- Free revisions come with most services; the count depends on the engineer and the service, and the menu shows it before you book. Every revision with Eric can run as a live MUSE session at no extra charge.
- Not sure whether you have a 2-track or full stems? See what to send, or ask us first.
Paying
- You pay on EngineEars, never on this site. Their checkout adds a service fee of about 3.5%, and the menu shows the total with it before you book.
- Some services take a deposit and others are paid in full; the checkout shows the exact amount.
- Your card goes to EngineEars only. We never see it.
