<<Hi Rachelle,


I think it's OK to send this to the list.  The most obvious rule is "you get 
what you pay for". It's up to you to decide what degree of quality you want 
for your project - and that will be the most significant cost-factor. You may 
want to find CD's that are similar to what you have in mind - in terns of 
production style, and find out the cost.  In very broad strokes - you're 
looking at a range of between $10,000 and $20,000 for your bottom line.  
Personally I don't know anyone who produced a CD for the lower figure... but 
it may be doable. But it always comes down to quality...


Good luck on this project... it's the most incredible thing to do!

  Subject: [HANASHIR:9407] recording budgets



  A question for those of you who have recorded your own CD's:  I am putting 
together a budget for a recording project and would welcome any help in 
listing expenses.  Off the top, I can think of studio time, side 
musicians/backup vocals, cd production, artwork, liner notes, packaging, and 
distribution.  I am also interested in knowing how many hours you have budget 
per cd cut and any other do's and don't's you may have learned along the way.

To all -
Shirona has offered very wise words - well expressed! It is a wonderful and 
daunting undertaking. I would just add that it is crucial to have a producer 
or wise experienced mentor before undertaking something that should 
ultimately be proudly representative of one's talent. it also requires a 
large dip into the family/community budget - and commitment!!!!. Just ask 
Rick Calvert!!!!
