BOOKING POLICIES

BOOKING POLICIES

  • Payment in full is required to book and schedule studio time.

  • All studio time officially booked on our calendar MUST be used

    within the time allotted. If technical difficulties do occur (which does sometimes happen), it is at the managements discretion to reschedule or provide unused hours in the future. If our equipment stops working, that’s not your fault, we will stop the time and you won’t be charged.

  • Studio time that has been purchased must be used within 24 months of payment.

  • All payments are final and non-refundable.

​​

RESCHEDULING POLICIES

  • Please notify Management 24 hours in advance if you need to

    reschedule.

  • If you notify Management to reschedule in LESS than 24 hours, your studio time is forfeited. This action is required to prevent the loss of re-booking the Studio and the Engineer to another client. 

​​

CANCELLATION POLICIES

  • If for any reason you need to cancel your studio time completely, please notify management immediately. For all cancellations, studio time is forfeited and non refundable - no exceptions.

TARDINESS POLICIES

  • Appointment times have been arranged specifically for you. If

    you arrive late, your session may be shortened in order to accommodate others whose sessions follow yours. Depending upon how late you arrive, your engineer will then determine if there is enough time remaining to start the session.

  • Session start time begins at the scheduled time even if the artist is not present.

    Out of respect and consideration to your engineer and other clients, please plan accordingly and be on time.
