Conditions
When a client places a verbal or written booking with Derek Studios for
studio reservations it is considered contractual. You will be obligated
to pay for the time you have requested including unused time. If you need
to cancel we require 48 hours notice.
Cancellation of scheduled services with less than 48 hours notice will be charged a $50.00 fee. When a client places a "hold" for studio time it is kept as an unconfirmed reservation. A "hold" reservation cannot be guaranteed, and we will notify you up to 12 hours prior to your starting time on the same day if we have an established booking challenging your "hold". At that time you must confirm or let go/cancel.
There is a booking minimum of 1 hour . Studio charges thereafter are in one quarter hour increments.
Storage of materials (CDs, tapes, hard drives, etc) and other property belonging to the client is solely at client's risk and Derek Studios will not be held liable for loss or damage to such articles regardless of the cause.
