Singer Songwriter Experience

We think the title of this experience says it all. The Singer Songwriter experience gift package allows the recipient to get their song ideas from head onto CD. Whether you are an accomplished singer/musician with solid ideas or if you have song lyrics and ideas but can't play a note then this is the experience for you. Broadwood Studio has all the tools and skills needed to get your ideas out of your head into a produced recording you can be proud of! You will have access to our plethora of instruments, equipment, sounds and samples to get the job done. To give you an idea of what can be achieved in the alloted time, for a four hour session, a singer/acoustic guitarist could set up in the live room and rattle through 

as many songs as they can allowing for mixing time at the end. on the other hand, a songwriter who only has lyrics and ideas could relay their idea to the engineer who can play most of the instruments required and sketch the entire song out and record to a reasonable standard in 4 hrs. It is worth bearing in mind that, although budgets are normally tight, the more time you spend the more you can accomplish. Perfect gifts for songwriters.

What To Expect On Your Songwriting Gift Session

We recommend that you email details of what you want to achieve before your session so that the engineer can prepare for you. basically, you turn up on the day with any instruments, if any. A period of time will be spent to hear your ideas and the engineer will offer any advice as required. the session will then go ahead doing the performances as required allowing enough time to mix the end result. The experiences can be flexible and if you run out of time you can arrange to pay for extra time, either at the end of your session if the engineer can fit on, or at another time. further time will cost £25 per hour.

Once the performance has been captured the next step is for the engineer to mix and produce the finished result using some of his arsenal of effects and tools. The result is then burnt to the master CD ready to be duplicated and printed. The Singer Songwriter package allows for one free CD per artist. You may purchase extra printed Cd copies on the day (up to 15 copies) at £2.50 each disc. If you are wishing to have a large batch of Cd's to send out as demo we do a special Singer Songwriter Demo package which gives you 50 printed Cd's included in the package price. Cd duplication and packaging can also be arranged as an optional extra. Please email us for details. Also, or as an alternative, digital MP3 versions can be emailed to you or downloaded to a USB disc or thumb drive provided by the artiste free of charge. Treat someone special to this great songwriting gift!
