How many Tracks can I expect to Record?

This is a very common question that I get from time to time and I wanted to take a second to answer it hoping that it will help you prepare for your next session!

(We will base this answer off of a 4 Hour Recording Session, since this is the average time booked in our studio)

The first 3 hours of a 4 hour session are used for producing, tracking and recording. The final hour is usually used to edit, mix and master.

Voice-Overs, Hip Hop and Karaoke Style Tracks:
Voice-overs are usually commercial business style clients and can expect to get most if not all of their tracks done in the 4 hour period. Karaoke style clients (which include singers tracking over pre-recorded material and hip hop style clients with their own beats) can expect to get 3-5 tracks completed.

Singer/Songwriters:
You folks have it the best when it comes to studio time. Usually you can expect to track 3 Full Songs or more in that time period. Given that they usually come in with just a guitar and minimal overdubs, there is plenty of time to get the right tone from the guitar, and make sure everything is sonically perfect.

Full Bands (up to 5 Piece):
Realistically when coming in to the studio with a full band for a 4 hour session, you can expect to track 1-2 songs. Main reason being that there are usually the main tracks (Bass, Drums, Guitar) along with overdubs (solos) and Multiple Vocal Tracks. The drums alone usually take at least 30 minutes to mic and test before any tracking even starts.

If you have any additional questions please let me know, I would be happy to answer them!

Have a Great Day!
