I encourage anyone who is or has worked in the Australian music industry to complete this survey.
It will help give a more accurate picture of some of the working environments, expectations and situations workers have found themselves in, and be part of helping to improve things for everyone ✌🏻

Interface + mic packs going out to clients singing at home. Sing on your tunes when you’re feeling good, rather than however you’re feeling when you’ve booked studio time. #musicproducer #musicproduction #recording #recordingstudio #mixing #mastering #remoterecording
