[QUOTE="Jay Barracato, post: 99302, member: 24"] Re: Top Ways To Annoy A Sound Engineer Unless you specifically outline your duties in contract form, I would not want to have to fight the ownership battle. It would not be hard to add a line to your contract for a one off show saying show files and settings remain the possession of the engineer and cannot be used by others. One of three things will happen: 1. The acts management doesn't care, they want you to mix a show, today, and are not thinking about future events. 2. The acts management doesn't understand the implications and will happily agree. 3. The acts management refuses that line, thereby indicating they want access to the file in the future, with or without the person that developed it. That means the product they expect is more than a single show, and should be priced accordingly. I think as an independent contractor, it is your own obligation to carefully define the scope of your job, because management is going to try to get all they can for their money. [/QUOTE]
