With Musiversal, you can easily book a remote recording session with a session grand piano player from the comfort of your own home or studio! Our intuitive platform allows you to communicate with the pianist, share project details, and review recordings seamlessly, saving you time and effort in the production process.
Efficiency: With Musiversal, efficiency is key. Our streamlined booking process and remote recording technology ensure that you can have professional-quality grand piano recordings delivered to you quickly and efficiently.

Value: Accessing top-tier piano talent with ready-to-go grand pianos and recording setups has never been more affordable.

This cost-effective approach provides exceptional value for musicians and producers of all levels, making professional-quality grand piano recordings accessible to everyone.
Hiring costs for Session Grand Piano Players can vary significantly due to the specialized nature of recording with a grand piano and the associated expenses. In traditional studio settings, rates can range from $200 to $1000 or more per hour, depending on the pianist's experience and the studio's location and equipment. Grand pianos require large recording spaces, high-quality microphones, and skilled engineers to capture their full tonal range and resonance accurately. Additionally, the rarity of experienced grand piano players with professional recording setups can contribute to higher costs. However, with Musiversal's subscription model, you gain access to highly skilled session pianists at a fixed monthly rate, providing exceptional value compared to traditional studio hires.
During a remote grand piano recording session with Musiversal, you can expect a seamless and professional experience from start to finish. Our session pianists are highly experienced and adept at collaborating with musicians and producers remotely, ensuring that your recording session runs smoothly and efficiently. After discussing your project requirements and musical vision, the pianist will deliver a performance that meets your specifications, capturing the essence and emotion of your music. With real-time communication and feedback, you have the opportunity to guide the recording process and ensure that the final product meets your expectations.
Following your remote grand piano recording session, you will receive high-fidelity audio files of the recorded tracks in your preferred format. These files will include individual stems for each microphone used during the recording session, allowing you to mix and edit the tracks to your liking - or you can lean on our professional audio editors, mixing or mastering engineers to complete the job for you (all included in the Musiversal Unlimited subscription). With Musiversal, you have access to professional-quality recordings that are ready to be integrated into your music production workflow seamlessly.
To ensure a successful remote grand piano recording session, it's essential to prepare your project materials and communicate your vision clearly to the session pianist. Start by providing detailed information about your song, including the key, tempo, and any specific musical elements or stylistic preferences you have in mind. If you have a demo or reference track, be sure to share it with the pianist, as it will serve as a valuable reference point during the recording process. Additionally, consider providing any sheet music, chord charts, or lead sheets that may help convey your musical ideas to the pianist. If you have a very specific vision for the piano part, you may need a score. Our producers are on-hand to create the written materials you may need for these sessions, included in your subscription. By preparing thoroughly and communicating effectively, you can maximize the efficiency and quality of your remote grand piano recording session - both the live recording experience, and the results!
