Contact Us
If you are new to Amber Lit Audio, have questions regarding a prospective project, or would like to check out the studio, feel free to contact me.
Common questions from bands:
What is the total cost to complete a song or album?
A) It depends on many factors- how tight is the band? How produced sounding do you want the work? How much time will we need for overdubs? The answers vary and we can discuss these factors ahead of time.
What is the engineers role?
A) This also varies, I can be anything from someone who mostly hits record and gets takes from the band, or if you want, I can take on more of a producer role in recommendations. Communicating ahead of time will usually clear this and other similar questions up, so feel free to contact us for any questions.
