Project: “Dishonesty” Demo
Artist: Daevu
Producer: Kameron Watkins
Studio Costs: $800 for 2 days of tracking, 1 day of overdubs, and 2 days of mixing
Engineering costs: $2,000 to pay the tracking and mixing engineers. (Honestly this may be way off, but this is just based on estimates I found online)
Equipment: Let’s just imagine this is an ideal world where everything we need is already in the studio and we only need to spend like $400 on extra stuff
Materials: $50 for an external hard drive
None of our musicians/composers are union, so I don’t think we have to pay for their health insurance: Let’s say we pay them like $50 an hour. We had a 5 hour session and 3 musicians, so that’s $750 total.
No travel expenses; they are based in Jacksonville.
So total, our budget is $4,200
