I know I am certainly not alone in highly recommending this amazing service. I'm an Emmy-winning producer/composer used to working in the studio, etc. But the convenience and professionalism and organization of this service is truly second to none; so much so that I've definitely been using their Unlimited Plan as much as possible and have now worked with a number of their artists, from cello, to drums, to guitar, to accordion (!), to acoustic bass. In each case, the efficient 35 min sessions (plus prep time before they log in) have been professional, friendly, collaborative, and fun. If you're able to organize nice lead sheets and have a good idea of what you want, then you will be especially ready to take maximum advantage. However, they also offer arranging and other services I haven't tried if you need it, which I am sure are also extremely high level and well done. In addition to being an Unlimited member, I also recently paid them a larger flat fee to have their 30 member strong Czech National Symphony Orchestra record a 5 min piece of mine over one hour for an upcoming recording, with a bit extra paid to have video documentation (2 moving cameras and 1 stationary). Again, provided you provide a professional score, the session runs efficiently and expertly and the recording quality is top notch (they charge extra if you need mixing help, but there is a mastering engineer included in the separate "Unlimited"). On the whole, I am extremely excited about this service, and also heartened to read that the pay to the actual musicians is actually considered respectable (including full-time salaries commensurate with the local costs of living, etc.). The only small caveat some users might experience is that in certain cases there's a decent lead time before you can book someone if you want a specific instrument. Because I've been more flexible about what to record next, etc., however, I've managed to squeeze in an average of 8 sessions/month (which works out to $25/session). So even if it's perhaps not "truly" unlimited, that's quibbling to me as it's still quite reasonable. Having said that, I do encourage them to offer more classical musicians to their Unlimited Roster, and (as they expand) perhaps more availability (though I'm happy that at least some of the times - despite the time difference in many cases - are reasonable - late morning, early to late afternoon ET, etc). But I'm sure they'll continue to change/balance these things as they inevitably - and deservedly - continue to expand. And as a person of color I also wouldn't mind seeing some African- or African American talent represented among their roster (but again their existing talent is top-notch).

Excellent experience with World Class musicians.

I have had several sessions with Musiversal, and can say that the experience has exceeded expectations. Not only are the quality of production and talented musicians great, the overall process has helped increase my work flow.

working with the folks at Musiversal was an amazing experience! Everyone was extremely helpful- Martina, Rita, Pedro and Alex and of course the entire orchestra. It was my first time recording, and my files were just midi and a virtual recording. From these, they were able to recreate exactly the same sound with a real orchestra and offered suggestions that will be hugely helpful as I continue to write. My family and loved ones are highly impressed as well and I cannot wait to make the song public when the mixing is done. Thank you all again!!

It was an amazing experience to record music that I wrote with CNSO. The sound is beyond my expectations and the team is very professional and helpful. Thank you, Musiversal, for this great session!

"Super," "amazing," and "incredible" are just some of the words that come to mind for the recordings musiversal has made of my work. From arranging to mastering their service is impeccable. Their support and administrative service is also outstanding. This is my second review for musiversal because I'm so impressed and dazzled by their excellent work. Highly recommended!

Thank you again, quality of the musicians and sound of the recording (had a 22 string recording) is great. The production team is really top professional and what you get delivered, also technically, leaves no wishes open. I'll be back ;)

I recently had the pleasure of remote recording a 22-piece string section with Musiversal. I booked a 24-minute time slot and was pleased to see how efficiently time was used. The players, conductor, and studio team were highly focused, and we managed to get through a 3-minute film cue. I couldn't be happier about the whole process, the communication and the end results. I look forward to working with Musiversal again in the future.
