Terms of Service
General Terms
I will start working on a commission after I have received all tracks and full payment
Clients may place an order straight through VGen or contact me directly through Twitter, Discord, or email
You are not required to contact me first before placing a VGen order (with the exception of NDA commissions), however I may message you to confirm details or ask for any missing files before accepting the request
If your request requires an NDA to be signed please contact me beforehand so that we can discuss the details - these will typically incur an additional privacy fee
Payments will be done through either Stripe, PayPal, or VGen's payment system (if no preference is mentioned for the payment method then invoices will be sent through Stripe by default)
Please make sure to prepare your tracks according to the track preparation outline I have described below
Refunds are not accepted after I have started working on a mix
If you intend to use the mixed track/s for commercial purposes you will be subject to an additional fee
Commercial purposes refer to cases such as the audio being used in monetised videos or being distributed onto monetised platforms (such as Spotify, iTunes, or YouTube Music)
When using the mix please make sure to credit me as Kai✮ and link to my YouTube channel and/or Twitter
I am sometimes open to accepting trades for vocal editing, guides, art, or animation - please feel contact me to discuss!
Track Preparation
All vocal tracks should provided in mono .wav format, and any overlapping lines should be in a separate file
Please make sure to provide the on vocal & instrumental tracks in the correct key and same bpm that you recorded to
I will not accept vocal tracks that are peaking/clipping, as these distortions will affect the quality of the final mix
Please make sure your vocal files are roughly timed to either the instrumental or reference track (this means your vocal stems should be aligned to either the ref track or inst when I import them into my project file)
When commissioning for the mix & master package please ensure all your files have been fully tuned & timed already, and that the timing directly matches up with the provided instrumental track
Please label your tracks clearly with the vocalist name, song title, and vocal part (for example: "[Kai] Mephisto -mains" or "Mephisto_Kai_mains" or equivalent)
I usually do not ask for retakes so please ensure the tracks you send me are your best takes
If you would like me to provide any kind of vocal direction before commissioning the mix feel free to discuss that with me!
