If you request your session files after your session has commenced, there will be a minimum charge of twenty-five dollars ($25) for us to put your session files on your hard drive OR send them to you via Songspace or Wetransfer. Files sent via Songspace or Wetransfer must be downloaded within seven days of your files being uploaded.
