Hey fellers...

I need to find a studio and get some rates to do a one song mix (probably a day and a half... i.e. check the mix in the am and print it). Anywhere from Sacramento to the Bay Area. It's coming out of Protools, I probably need 48 or 64 outputs. It needs to be a room with a "big boy" console (my client thinks we might need "the sound of a console"), good outboard comps and eqs, and an engineer that can help me (I'm an ITB guy, and don't have much experience driving a big console). I'll automate in PT, so console automation isn't needed. A bonus would a room with a C7 (or even better, a Disklavier C7), so I could recut the piano, as what I've got isn't stellar.

The tune is sort of a pop/rock duet... drums, piano, bass, electric guits, live strings, girl and guy vocals.

Where should I go? Who should I call? How much should I expect to fork over?

Thanks,
brian
