ALBUM LICENSING For those who haven't released an album or CD before, know that doing an album yourself can be VERY expensive - especially if you want to get it right. For those who want a vintage sound, VERY few studios have the equipment necessary for that sound, and those that are can be pricey. After paying for musicians, studio time and more, doing an album yourself can cost as much as $30,000.. or even more!!! But there's an easier way - for a FRACTION of the cost, with help from people who've released 20+ albums/CDs and can help you through it.. right here at Just Awesome Karaoke!! Read through our options carefully to see which package is right for you, or email us at: jak@justawesomekaraoke.com Basic Licensing Package ($2000): License for you to use a select 12 of our instrumental recordings with your lead vocals for a CD and/or Digital album release. Your vocals placed in our session, basic levels set and using our vintage compressors and EQs (if submitting audio not from our studios, audio must be ready-to-use with no pitch/timing/speed corrections left for us to do, as those are not included) Your face, name, and basic text placed into the artwork prepared from our albums and/or album options. CD and digital format of artwork is included. (you must provide all other text necessary, all pictures must be ready to use. Note for physical releases: before artwork is started, you must select the place you'll order your CDs from, and must provide us with the proper templates needed for your release that are provided by that company.) Your album available digitally on www.justawesomekaraoke.com (20% processing/site fee deducted from each song/album purchased from site.) Note: The basic package does not include song royalty payments or "mechanical licensing", which you'll need to release an album, and also does not include production help or assistance. For production help and assistance, please see our add-on packages. Add-on packages: Multi-Format Release Artwork ($500): for artwork in any release format other than CD/Digital (such as Vinyl, 8-track, or Cassette), you want this. Your CD artwork will be formatted for Vinyl, 8-track, Cassette - whatever format you need! If you change manufacturing companies and need your artwork re-formatted to fit the new manufacturer's templates, this package covers that, too! Multi-Format Release Audio ($600): for audio mixing/mastering in any release format other than CD/Digital (such as Vinyl, 8-track, or Cassette), you want this. Not all formats can use the same mixing/mastering as used for CD and Digital releases, and if you want to release your album in another format, then this makes sure everything works for your favorite physical audio format! Artwork Customization ($800): Need something customized? Photo touch-ups (within reason), re-color, background removal, etc? Then this is the package for you. Intermediate Audio Correction Package ($1500): Pitch/timing correction, audio repair (when possible) and customized vocal volume control.
