Audio Consulting Services Process

The following information details the audio consulting services process. Although each case is different, depending on the needs of the consultation, for most the process involves 5 basic steps in order to be completed.

Step 1: Initial Consultation
Step 2: Assessment, Research and Design
Step 3: Options and Resources Consultation
Step 4: Final Plan Presentation
Step 5: Followup

The following describes the process for each in more detail:

Step 1: Initial Consultation

An initial consultation is set up to discuss your needs. The initial consultation will cover both technical and creative aspects of what you want to accomplish.

After the initial consultation an estimate will be sent to you for the total cost of the work to be done. An outline for the project will be designed to determine if the job can be done to your satisfaction and within your budget.

Step 2: Assessment, Research and Design

After the initial consultation, a detailed assessment is made of the work to be done. If necessary or applicable, additional research and design work may be done to produce solutions that fit within your budget. Music production work will involve a detailed critique of the provided material.

Step 3: Options and Resources Consultation

In this part of the audio consulting services process, we will discuss the options available to you for Home Studio Design and Equipment and Software Recommendations. Based on your feedback, a final plan will then be created.

For Music Production Consultations an initial assessment of the provided material will be presented and discussed.

Step 4: Final Plan Presentation

Once all final decisions have been made a final plan will be presented. In the case of a Home studio Design, the plans will be presented with resources for any materials that are required.

For Equipment and Software Recommendations, links will be provided for the best purchase price, new or used.

For Music Production Consultations, specific recommendations may be presented based on the feedback from the Options and Resources Consultation.

Step 5: Followup

Should any questions or problems arise from the Final Plan Presentation, a followup consultation may be scheduled to clarify the details of the plan. If necessary, revised plans will be designed to accommodate unforeseen issues.
