How long will it take for my final tracks to be delivered?

There are several purchase options that will determine when your tracks will be completed. From the time you fill out the Studio Checklist and upload your scratch/reference MP3 files it could be anywhere between two and three days before you receive your final bass tracks. There are a number of factors that will determine the speed of your project, including; The proper preparation of your scratch/reference tracks (we provide easy detailed instructions), the complexity of your song and desired bass performance, and the location your final bass tracks (on CD) need to be sent (we also offer an express option which can get you your tracks much faster).

Can I download my final bass tracks?

Yes. You will have the option to either download your final bass tracks or have them sent to you on CD. It will be a large file so we only recommend using this option if you have a fast internet connection.

How large will my final bass track be?

This will depend on the sample-rate and bit-depth of your project. If you have a slow internet connection we recommend receiving your track using the CD option. You'll be able to select several shipping options to ensure rapid delivery of your tracks.

Can I talk to the bassist about my project on the phone?

Absolutely, if you have questions before or after you start a project we can set up a time to call our studio and talk with the bassist about your project. Email us and we will set up a time for you to call. Please note, we take incoming calls only.

Can I use the final bass tracks on my other projects?

Yes. You are licensing the bass tracks we send you, and you may use them in any way in your own personal songs and productions. Please note the following:

• You may NOT distribute the bass tracks in ANY form except as part of your own song / production
• You may NOT sell or give any parts of the bass tracks, in any format, to anyone unless the bass is mixed with your own song/production
• You may NOT edit or mix the bass tracks into any kind of loops or samples for resale or distribution of any kind

Is my song copyright protected?

Like anyone who writes a song, it's up to you to make sure your artistic works are copyright protected. This is a simple process, and there are a few different ways to cover your self. Here are a couple places to get more Copyright info..

• www.loc.gov/copyright
• www.officialsoftware.com

Once you've done this, it is safe to send us your MP3 scratch/reference files. Please keep in mind, only the bassist and engineer will hear your music and we will never disclose any information you give us without your consent.

Who will hear my song after I email my scratch/reference MP3 tracks?

Only the bass player and engineer will hear your songs/files. Your songs, along with any info you have given us, will be kept strictly confidential and never given to any third-parties.

Do I need to credit the bass player for his work?

It would be nice if you give credit to bassist Todd Connelly and include www.OnlineBassTracks.com, however, it is not required.

Will I get to preview and approve the final bass tracks before they are sent to me?

Yes. After we complete your bass session we will upload an MP3 file for you to preview. If you like the take, the final bass track(s) will be sent to you. If you would like the bass player to record another session with changes, it will be a lower additional charge.

What format will my final bass tracks be?

All the individual bass tracks we send you will be recorded to WAV or AIFF files (depending on what you select in the Studio Checklist) at the sample-rate and bit-depth of your choice.
