As a provider
of music for theaters and film productions, we understand that most Karaoke
CDs on the market for broadway and off-broadway musicals are usually
lacking for performance purposes, often missing critical underscores
for dialog, or deviating from original keys, forms, and scored instrumentation.
Karaoke CDs also normally have no scene change music, dance numbers,
and other critical pieces. That's where we come in.
We create customized karaoke backing tracks for theaters and musical
theater students, actors, and enthusiasts, even backing tracks for church
performances, auditions, anything else you can possibly think of. Simply
send us a copy of your score with specific instructions about what you
need, and we'll record it from the ground up for you using state-of-the
art studio recording equipment, samples, and live instruments. Our process
is easier and cheaper than hiring and rehearsing an orchestra to play
at your shows, and is reliable -- perfect for a long run or for intense
rehearsals -- and it sounds great! Most customers can't believe their
ears! In fact, our tracks are so good, they've been used by professional
musicians, karaoke companies, theaters, and schools across the country.

Pricing
Pricing generally depends on a number of factors, including
how much or how little score information you have, how long the song
is, and the orchestrational complexity of the score. You will
find our prices reasonable and affordable. Remember, you're paying for
a custom track recorded from the ground up -- that involves lots of man
hours (6hrs miminum per track) and expertise to do transcriptions, arrangements,
performing and recording.
In
general, you can expect a full show with complete orchestrations for
10-25 songs to cost between $1500 and $4000. Individual tracks run from
$150-$300 depending on length and complexity.
We
will evaluate your project to determine the amount of work that needs
to be done, and customize your solution to fit your budget, timeframe,
and aesthetic needs. Contact
us for a custom quote (please include as much detail as possible) .
*discounts available for full show orders and first-time clients
*rushed delivery available in certian situations for an extra fee per
song
Changes to tracks may be requested within 14 days
of final project delivery at no extra charge.

Turnaround Time
While turnaround varies depending on the scale and complexity of each
project, we normally finish individual tracks within 24-48 hours of
receipt, and entire musical scores (for an entire full-length show)
within about 2-3 weeks of receiving your scores, though you can download
finished tracks as they are completed. We can overnight a CD to you,
or provide MP3 download from our servers as we finish tracks, or deliver
in other formats like minidisc or dat.
What we need from you
Send us your orchestration/conductor
score (either hard copy or pdf via email), or a copy (we return all
scores and materials via overnight mail once your project is complete
and paid), notes or special instructions (ie cuts, tempos, keys, etc),
and any other supporting materials you feel are relevant.
If
you are performing these works, you MUST have obtained performance
rights. No matter what anyone says, it is illegal to perform shows
or their songs without first obtaining clearance from the show's rights
administrator.

Payment terms:
Our process:
(1) project evaluation - (2) quote - (3) customer deposit and
agreement - (4) project completion and delivery - (5) final invoice
Because we often work long distance with our clients, a signed project
agreement is required before we start work on your project. Projects
are normally billed upon completion, though in certain instances
you may be required to make a deposit. Pre-paid
projects get first priority. This
ensures that you get the best work possible, and that there are no
surprises along the way.
You can pay via check or money
order (when
you in send your score), by phone with visa, mastercard, or
american express, by PayPal, or by institutional purchase order.
(If you provide a purchase order, or have made other special payment
arrangements, the project may not need a deposit). We
may, however, hold your score materials until the project has been
paid for in full.
