Session FAQs
What is your remote studio setup like?
We have a set of cohesive, compatible professional grade microphones across the quartet, Logic Pro, and capabilities to create highly customized click tracks to ensure the highest quality end product for your projects.
How fast is your turnaround time?
Turnaround time depends on the length of the project, but our average delivery time is 2-3 weeks if all the materials are prepared ahead of time. We can handle an expedited delivery for your project upon request (and our availability at that time).
What are your general rates (remotely and in-studio?)
All fees are dependent on the specifics of each project (length, complexity), but in general, remote recording rates are roughly $500 for moderately complex projects up to 2 minutes, $600 for projects up to 3 minutes, $700 up to 4, $800 up to 5, etc. In-studio fees are typically $600/hour (not including the studio/engineer fee), or $5000 for a full day up to 10 hours.
Both remote and in-studio rates include a consultation about your project/vision as well as our own quartet rehearsal and individual practice before the session.
I’m worried about the quality and execution of a fully remote session. Do remote recordings sound as good as in-studio?:
Here’s a playlist — let us know if you can tell.
Will I have full commercial rights to the finished product?
Yes! You will have full commercial rights to sell your end product. You are not required to feature us on the work.
Am I able to hire just one or two members of the quartet for projects that don’t require the full quartet?
Absolutely, and the fees will be reduced/adjusted accordingly!

About ATLYS
ATLYS is a classically trained, crossover string quartet known for their passionate performances and signature sound. Founded in 2016, the ensemble has reimagined what a modern string quartet can be: appearing on world-renowned stages like Red Rocks and The Gorge, earning over 30 million streams on Spotify, and performing more than 1,000 shows across the globe. As ambassadors for Shar Music and Schertler microphones, ATLYS blends classical precision with cutting-edge technology, captivating audiences through both live and virtual performances.
With a collective background spanning prestigious orchestras and chamber ensembles, violinists Jinty McTavish and Sabrina Tabby, cellist Genevieve Tabby, and violist Susan Bengtson Price bring unmatched versatility to their craft and have supported artists from a plethora of backgrounds like EDM producer Seven Lions, ska punk legends Streetlight Manifesto, alternative, feel good band, Sammy Rae and the Friends, and modern renaissance indie artist Fish in a Birdcage. Together, they curate dynamic programs, publish their own innovative arrangements, and continually push the boundaries of genre and setting. Whether on iconic stages, in intimate venues, or through remote recordings, ATLYS embodies discovery, creativity, and the power of music to inspire across generations.
Education & Community Engagement
We bring our artistry and experience as a string quartet into educational spaces, inspiring students through dynamic, hands-on programs. Our goal is to spark creativity, deepen musical understanding, and equip the next generation of musicians through 4 types of educational offerings.
K-12 School Presentations
Who is this for?
Elementary and middle schools looking to introduce students to classical music in a fun, interactive way that builds lasting excitement.
Our engaging presentations introduce students to the string family (including its history, present, and future) through recognizable music, interactive elements, and rhythm education. We get students excited before we arrive and keep them inspired long after we leave!
School Orchestra Residencies
Who is this for?
Middle and high school orchestra programs that want to deepen musicianship, inspire students, and bring new energy to their ensembles.
Our residencies place ATLYS musicians directly in student ensembles, offering side-by-side rehearsals, sectionals, and chamber music strategies that elevate playing. Students receive feedback and inspiration in real time, culminating in a collaborative concert that can feature specially-created arrangements for string orchestra of favorite ATLYS originals.
Chamber Music Camps
Who is this for?
Young musicians and pre-professional students seeking to refine their ensemble skills and deepen their understanding of chamber music.
We offer ensemble coaching, score study, and rehearsal strategies that focus on listening, breathing, communication, and overall group cohesion. Students benefit from masterclasses with their peers and live ATLYS performances that inspire excellence and artistic growth.
Entrepreneurship and Composition Workshops
Who is this for?
High school, college, and emerging professional musicians who want to strengthen their composing skills and learn how to sustainably grow their careers.
For composers, ATLYS offers lectures on string writing, extended techniques, workshops, and professional recordings (available remotely). We also provide marketing education covering social media, email lists, Patreon, and more to grow your CEO mindset.
