SOUND ASYLUM staff will:

• • Wash or sanitize hands before and after every session, or any time we come into contact with a surface touched by anyone else.
  • Provide masks, gloves, hand sanitizer, and hand-washing facilities for all clients, talent and staff.
  • Check temperature of all staff, clients and talent before beginning a session.
  • Wear mask and gloves while setting up mics in the booth before a session.
  • Wear masks at all times while talent and client are on premises.
  • Ask talent to wear a mask at all times except while recording.
  • Ask client to wear a mask at all times while on premises.
  • Wear gloves while cleaning.
  • Wear a fresh pair of gloves when printing and handling talent scripts and paperwork.
  • Wipe down all surfaces, door handles, light switches, seating, phones, toilets, faucets and sinks, with an approved disinfecting cleaner before and after every session, or after recording each talent.
  • Disinfect all microphones before and after each use.
  • Switch out and sanitize microphone pop filters after each use.
  • Wipe down any touchable surfaces in the booth after each use, including booth glass, mic stands, music stands, headphones, headphone volume knobs, booth door handle.
  • Rotate and sanitize individual headphone sets between each use and cover ear pads with new, disposable sanitary ear pad covers. Or talent may bring their own professional, studio-grade headphones.

• • Sound Asylum staff will wear masks, gloves and remain at least 6 feet away from talent or clients.
  • Sound Asylum staff will ask talent to step out of the sound booth or stage while any adjustments are made to the microphone or equipment.
  • Sound Asylum will not take payment by cash or credit card on-site. We will invoice clients electronically and accept payment electronically, or a check by mail.

Clients who do not attend sessions may request to see and hear talent perform live, using Zoom or Skype. Of course we still offer Source Connect and ISDN for connecting to and syncing with other post production facilities.

Sound Asylum asks for additional set-up time of 15 minutes between talent arrival and connection to off-site studio, director or clients so we can make mic adjustments while maintaining social distance from talent. If recording more than one talent, we ask for 30 minutes from when the first talent leaves and the next talent arrives to clean and sanitize, plus an additional 15 minutes after talent arrives for mic adjustments.
