A non-refundable deposit of 50% of the total project fee is required prior to the commencement of any work. The remaining 50% balance is due upon completion of the project, before delivery of final high-resolution audio files. Final high-resolution files will not be released until full payment is received. Mixes and masters will be reviewed and approved by the Client using high-quality 320kb/s MP3 files."

The turnaround time provided by Klein Soundworks begins only after all necessary materials have been received from the Client in full and in the required format.
