We have a large catalog of pre-made beats of all genres including Hip/Hop, Rap, Pop, EDM, Country and Rock. If you are more into starting with a melody or idea that is stuck in your head and turning that into an actual beat or composition we can make you a track or album that is uniquely your sound from scratch.

Music Production

If you are a songwriter or lyricist but don’t sing or play any instruments or if you are a singer/songwriter looking for full band instrumentation we can help. Our team can take your idea no matter how early it is in development and help to create a full song or jingle or whatever your music needs are. We can chart the music, hire the musicians, and bring your ideas to life. Give us a call for more information and rates.  

Mastering

Mastering is the final step in the music-making process and an important one - a necessity before releasing your music. This step ensures your project will be well represented in all forms of playback and is the final stage of equalization, compression, and limiting. Our Studio A was acoustically designed with mastering in mind. Our Ocean Way Audio HR3.5 Main Monitors, Audient console, and outboard gear in Indianapolis provide all the tools necessary for high-end mastering. We specialize in stereo mastering for Digital Distribution platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and others. Also, we master for vinyl records, CDs, and other media. If you wish to master for both Digital and Vinyl add $10 per song to the mastering price.

Song/Artist Registration Concierge Service

Let us help you through the tough stuff! To kick start this service, we will discuss how to pick the best Performance Rights Organization for you, assist you in completing your affiliate application as a writer and/or publisher, help you understand the difference between a writer and publisher, choose your writers name and publishers company name as well as identifying your IPI numbers. After completing this, we can move on to the topic of distribution. This process includes uploading your files (music, album cover, lyrics, canvas, etc.) and choosing what retail locations you want to distribute them to, solidifying a price, identifying your ISRC codes, and submitting the project for distribution. This leads us to your Sound Exchange Registration, where we will help get you signed up and on-boarded. After completing this process, we will assist you in registering your song with the ISRC code to Nielsen/Sound Scan. Once this is buttoned up, we can register your song with the appropriate P.R.O. and identify writer/publisher splits using your IPI numbers. Lastly, we will walk you through the process of registering as a writer and publisher through copyright.gov. This includes your Performing Arts (PA) copyrights and Sound Recording (SR) copyrights. For more information regarding booking, email us at hunter@thertrc.com

Publisher sign on cost, Distribution choice cost, Nielsen registration cost and Copywriting costs).
