i would like to know step to step the process of mixing, mastering, packaging, and also how to get a vin number or register with soundscan to track sales (which falls under distribution) thanks for your knowledgeable assistance.

If an artist began recording music in the november 2008, when would the album be available to buy? (averaging at 3-6 minutes per song and 10 songs on the album)

How long are you willing to wait for an album and how do you feel about artists that drop at least two albums in a year. Is that enough time in order for the new album not to sound like the last album?

A quick question.. If an unsigned artist or bands pays for all recording costs for an album, shops it and gets signed, WHO is the owner of the masters??? The artist??? The label for a certain amount of time??? If anyone could clarify this, I would appreciate it.

What I mean is do the artists decide how the music is layed out?
