Dan Palladino session FAQ:

I'm on a budget. Isn't hiring session musicians expensive?
Hiring musicians can indeed be expensive. However, working with a session musician remotely, cuts costs for the entire project. Because I own my own studio, I can record your tracks without blocking out time to travel to an outside studio. This saves a great deal of time and money.

How will I know if you can produce tracks that are acceptable to me?
Working with me is risk-free. First, I'll listen to your song to determine if I'll be able to provide the proper parts. I'm an extremely versatile musician, but there are some styles that are outside of my expertise. For instance, I wouldn't accept any sessions for classical or speed metal music. You'd be better off finding players who specialize in those particular genres, and I'll be up front with you about that.

Second, I'll provide one revision free of charge. You can't lose!

With which styles are you familiar?
Singer/songwriter, rock, blues, R&B, funk, jazz, country, roots music, avant garde, progressive.

Will your tracks sound professional?
Of course! Read a bit about me here. For an explanation of my gear, with photos, go here. Listen to samples of my work here.

Once you play on my song, will you own a percentage of the song?
No. I will sign a musician release, stating that I have been paid for my work as a session musician, and that I have no ownership in any of the music.

How does payment work?

• All payments will be made via PayPal for your convenience.

• Once you decide to utilize my service, we'll confirm the tracks required and the fee for those tracks.

• Within three to four days, I will record the guitar tracks and send you an mp3 reference mix to review. On solos and other improvised parts, I'll give you two or three ideas, and let you have those tracks to use as you see fit.

• Upon your approval, I'll send you an invoice via PayPal.

• Once I receive your payment, I will then send you a link to download the full-resolution guitar tracks (.wav or .aif) within 24 hours.

• I'll provide you with one revision free of charge. Subsequent revisions will be billed according to the agreed upon rate.

Does the price include editing?
Yes! Any tracks you receive from me will be pristine. I'll take the time to do crossfades between splice points, etc. All you need to do is import back into your project and you're done.

Does the price include effects?
Yes. If you have a specific effect in mind (phase shifter for example), I will record with that effect. Usually, it's best to leave ambient effects, such as reverb and delay, for mixdown. That will be completely under your control.

What if my song is a prog epic in 11/16, which to date, only a computer has been able to play?
I'll give you a custom quote. Of course the price will depend on the complexity of the piece.

Do you have any tips or advice that will help make my project a success?
Yes! I have a FAQ here that will greatly increase the liklihood of you being happy with your recording.

Do you play additional instruments?
I can also record electric bass and voice tracks for you.

What's the first step?
