Studio XYZ says they can do the whole process for a fixed amount. Why cant you?
Over the fifteen years that we have been one of the professional audio recording studios in Austin, TX, we have seen many studios try the fixed amount approach and, as far we know, none of them are still in business. There was either bad blood because the studio rushed the process at the end because they had made a bad deal for themselves and they started skimping during critical stages or they honored the deal but could not stay open because they werent bringing in enough to pay the bills. There are some producers that use the fixed amount approach successfully but they have control of the process and they are experienced enough to factor in and deal with any contingencies that may arise. There are occasions where the client is not happy in this scenario as well.
