$300 PER DAY (starting rate)

From small DIY backyard shows to small U.S. tours to city council meetings, I am experienced in mixing rock, hip hop, metal, folk, musical theatre productions, small ceremonies, and professional conferences in most venues and environments.

This rate specifically covers my time and labor as an audio engineer. The rate may change depending on gear used, location, and other factors. Please contact me with specifics of your event to establish how I can provide the best, most affordable rate and service for your needs.

$200 PER SONG to MIX

Mixing is combining and balancing all the elements of a multi-track recording into a complete final version of the song to convey an artist’s vision to listeners.

Client must complete recording of project before mixing begins.

$50 PER SONG to MASTER

Mastering is the final step in the production process to transform your song from a great final mix into a fully finished product that sounds amazing everywhere and is ready for all distribution platforms.

Client will receive files in 24-bit 48k .wav for streaming, 16-bit 44.1k .wav for CDs, and MP3s upon project completion.

$40 PER HOUR (starting rate)

From recording an NPR tiny desk submission in your living room to recording a full rock band in one big room at a professional studio or recording your live concert, I will work with you to bring your vision into a reality. Please contact me directly for studio specifics.

Mixing and mastering not included in rate.

I offer private lessons for Logic Pro X and/or audio engineering concepts at $30 PER LESSON. These hour-long lessons are custom 1-on-1 meetings, tailored to whatever genre of music you are interested in. Both Logic Pro X and the concepts of audio engineering as a whole can be overwhelming so I’m more than happy to help you learn!

Speaking of learning, the world will always need an audio engineer. If you’re serious about learning and working in audio, please reach out to me for availability on any upcoming gigs I have that you can help and learn on-site.

As an independent concert promoter here in Southern California, I do my best to help provide opportunities to independent musicians in booking them for live shows that will sound great, pay them well, and that become a memorable experience for the audience.
