FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
We typically charge $80/hr. for one-on-one lessons and individual projects. However, the rate is largely dependent on the client's needs and the services we will be providing (Ex: traveling distance, equipment provision and multiple tasks would raise the cost, usually anywhere from $10-50). We are flexible with pricing and will discuss the details at the initial consultation.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically, we will have an initial consultation to meet and discuss all the details concerning the costumer's needs. We will bring a contract agreement stating the conditions of the job and have both parties sign before continuing. If the costumer is unable to meet in person, we will communicate via email and will keep in touch to discuss any ideas/changes/etc. throughout the process. We usually ask for half of the pay up-front, but this would be stated in the contract and discussed further at the personal meeting.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
We are owners of Audio N Sense, LLC, each with a Bachelor's of Science degree in Audio Production. Patrick is the Recording Instructor at Guitar Center Studios in Round Rock; Rachel's music has been featured in Oakley advertisements and is signed with Red Bull Records. Our clients will have nothing to worry about, as we are both very skilled and experienced in the sound field. We have worked with members from the band Blue October and with artist Brenda Russell. We have worked as DJs in downtown Austin clubs and at numerous weddings and events. We have also designed and built professional acoustic-treated studios for clients such as Matt Bray from the well-known local cover band, LC Rocks.
