To help your session go smoothly, make sure you have your music as prepared as you can before you arrive.
We can help with the structure on the day if you're not sure, but make sure you can play your song all the way through and if you're singing, that you have your lyrics written.
It's important (particularly if we're adding drums) that you can play your piece in time, to a steady beat. Also, make sure each track is under 4 minutes in length.
You can of course bring your own instrument, however our studio has a range of quality acoustic and electric guitars and amps, violins, mandolins, a boudoir grand piano and other instruments should you wish to use them.

As you're not visiting us, make sure you let us know if you want a particular sound or style for your accompaniment.
For best results, send each instrument/voice as separate files (stems), but if this isn't possible then a mix together is fine too.
If possible, send your files to us in the .wav format as this will achieve the best results. If this isn't possible, then as high a quality (bitrate) mp3 is OK.
Email it to info@addaband.co.uk, or as these files can be quite big, feel free to use YouSendIt or a similar service. Alternatively, you can upload it direct to our DropBox at info@addaband.co.uk.
