It depends on what the recording will be used for. There are 3 basic types of recordings:


Demo Scale: This type of recording is used for demo tracks and are not generally distributed to the public. Average pay is around $150 for a 3 hour session.



Limited Press Scale: This type of recording is used for music that will be distributed to the public with less than 10,000 copies released. Average pay is about $200 for a 3 hour session.


Master Scale: This type of recording is used for music that will be distributed to the public with more than 10,000 copies released. Average pay is about $400 for a 3 hour session.



If you are a leader on any of the sessions (you put the band together, write charts, and organize the session) then you can double your pay rate (approximately).
