Our seasoned session lap steel players will be primed and prepared to dive right into recording your music from the very start of the session. After initial pleasantries and a brief discussion about the song, you have the opportunity to provide direction and outline your preferences for the recording. Typically, the lap steel player will lay down one full take of the song, ensuring it aligns with your vision. Then, you're encouraged to offer feedback and request adjustments to tailor the recording to your liking. There's room for spontaneity too; you might discover unexpected elements that resonate with you, prompting a creative shift in the session. Remarkably efficient, our session lap steel players can typically deliver 3-4 full takes on a 4-minute song within our standardized 35-minute session format, including punch-ins. This level of productivity, coupled with exceptional quality, consistently impresses our subscribers.

Moreover, if you require assistance with post-production tasks such as editing, mixing, or mastering, Musiversal provides a team of experienced audio engineers who can deliver professional-quality services to enhance your recordings further.
