FAQ: PRICE AND PROCESS
1. WHAT'S THE PROCESS FOR BOOKING AN ORCHESTRAS?
1. First, browse and choose an orchestra that matches your preferences and budget; we have orchestras ranging from 12 to 51 players and prices starting from €199.
2. Next, you'll need to fill out a quick form by clicking the "Book Now" button. Here, we'll ask for you to tell us a bit about your piece of music, how far along in your composition you are, whether you're able to write the scores yourself or need our help and which month you'd ideally like to record. We recommend that you aim to choose a recording date at least 1 month into the future, since the scoring and preparation process does require some time. Once you've submitted the form, one of our executive producers will be in touch with you within 3 business days.
3. Our executive producer will provide you with specific recording date options and recommend a length to book based on the length and complexity of your piece. They will also provide you with additional options like score arrangement, mixing/mastering and 4K video recordings of the session.
4. Now that we have your track information and booking confirmation, you can simply sit back and wait for your recording date to come around! If you've requested scoring, we'll get to work and ensure everything is ready well ahead of your session. We request that you leave enough time
5. A few days before your session we will send you two links: one for audio, and another for video. The audio link opens in your browser, and it's a direct feed from the recording desk, in high-quality. The video link is a Zoom conference call, where you can see the orchestra and communicate directly with the producer, conductor and musicians. We request you click the links a few minutes before the session so that you're ready to begin on time.

Our producers will make sure that your entire piece is recorded. Our proposed session lengths are estimates, so if your session length does not match the time required to adequately record your piece, we have a number of provisions in place, as outlined in Point 21 our Terms of Use.
