Need an Assistant?

If you’d like on-site help setting up, patching gear, or keeping the session running smoothly, you can book an assistant.

FULL DAY (10 HOURS)$275.00 INCL. GST
HALF DAY (5 HOURS)$137.50 INCL. GST

An assistant is there to make your session run smoothly - setting up mics, patching gear, and keeping things organised. They are not a producer or engineer and won’t operate your DAW or make creative decisions.

Or perhaps a Producer/Engineer!

If you don’t have your own engineer, we can recommend one of our highly skilled associated producers/engineers. They know the studio inside out and can help you get the best possible sound.

$35 ~ $75 per hour
