We do day rates for recording at Friends of Friends Recording set at $600/day or $500/day for 3+ days.
This is inclusive of;
• the studio space
•Brok's time engineering
• all in-house backline and equipment.
We do this for a few reasons, but mostly to try and mitigate potential artist anxiety stemming from having to manage a clock during sessions and keeping the space focused on the artist's vision for that day.
A recording day here starts at 10am and goes till 8pm, with a lunch break, unless we've discussed otherwise.
For times where an artist might need 2 hours or so to revise something quickly, we can also do hourly at $75/hr (2 hour min).
-
For stereo mixing, we do flat rates of $400/song. For projects with over 10 songs, we charge $350/song for each additional song (after the first 10 songs).
That includes;
• revisions
• alternative mix versions (instrumental, clean, tv/show, acapella,etc)
• mixed stems
We are now offering mixing in Dolby Atmos as well! Here’s a link to rates and info on this process.
We also have a Patreon where we live stream mix sessions for our subscribers to learn about the mixing process. If you'd like your music to be considered for this and get a potential discount on your mixing apply here!
-
For mastering, we do $100/song. For projects with more than 10 songs, we charge $75/additional song (after the first 10).
That includes;
• revisions
• alternate master versions when needed & provided with the final mix (instrumental, clean, tv/show etc).

If you are a freelance producer/engineer hoping to use our studio space for your own clientele, you are welcome with a professional reference or with an assistant FOF engineer present for your session.
The cost of the studio for freelancers (without Brok engineering) is $300/day (plus the assistant engineer rate if needed). Or $30/hr (2hr min).
An assistant engineer is $150/day if needed or required.

To lock in a session date, we ask for a 50% deposit for the work to be done. The final payment will be due when the service is rendered (final mixes, masters, or the date of your recording session).
