Recording a featured verse remotely

A feature usually goes wrong at the handoff: the guest records at the wrong tempo, sends a file that does not line up, or prints effects that cannot be undone. Feature recording is about capturing your collaborator's verse cleanly and getting it back in a form that drops straight into your song.

The guest's verse drops into an open 16-bar slot, matched to the song's BPM and key.

02How to start

What to send a featured artist

  • The beat as a WAV, with its BPM and key
  • Which bars are theirs (for example, verse 2: 16 bars)
  • A rough of the song so far, and a reference
  • Ask for dry WAV files back, starting from bar 1, with the lead, doubles and adlibs as separate files

Agree credits and any fee with your featured artist in writing before they record.

No date is set yet. Join the waitlist to hear first.

Can you mix features someone else recorded?

Yes. Send them with the beat and book a vocal mix.

What should I send my featured artist?

The beat as a WAV, its BPM and key, the bars that are theirs, a rough of the song, and a reference.

Dry WAV files at the song's sample rate, starting at bar 1, with the lead, doubles and adlibs as separate files.

Often, with cleanup in the mix, though a cleaner recording always sounds better. Send it, and we check it before the job starts.
