Deposit & cancellation

The policy, before you pay

New clients pay a 50% deposit to hold dates. Deposits are credited to your final invoice. Weekend and late-night sessions need at least one week’s notice.

Select a tier to see what applies. If we cancel for any reason, you get a full refund of everything paid.

Payment

Card, ACH or check. Balance due at the end of the final session day. Card payments carry a 3% processing fee, shown on the invoice before you pay; ACH and check have no fee.

Rescheduling

Rescheduling more than 14 days out is free, subject to availability. Studio illness or equipment failure: full credit or refund.

Files & ownership

Masters and multitracks transfer to you on payment in full. Backups are kept for 90 days.
