Standard Service
This is our basic music typesetting service offering origination of staff-based notation from manuscript for those who need a reasonably-priced, flat-rate-per-page service. We supply two cycles of drafts for proof-reading and then high-quality printed artwork (at 1200 or 1800dpi). We can also supply source or image files on disc instead of artwork, if preferred.
Price Guide
c.£10 - £12 per A4 page of printed music for most staff-based manuscripts.
 
Low Cost Service
This service is aimed at offering high quality origination of staff-based straightforward music from manuscript. A short choral anthem or simple piano studies are typical of the music processed with this service. We supply one set of drafts for proof-reading and the high quality printed artwork (at 1200dpi). We do not usually supply files on disc with this service, although this can be arranged if needed.
Price Guide
c.£5 - £8 per A4 page of printed music for most straightforward manuscripts.
 
Priority Service
This service is aimed at offering score-and-parts preparation using computer origination at similar prices and timescales to a hand-copyist. We supply laser-printed music at 600dpi from this service, but we can also provide files on disc where necessary. Pricing for this service varies enormously with the urgency of the work, and you should contact us for more details if you need to place this kind of work with us.
Price Guide
c.£0.15p-£0.20p per staff-bar of score transcription for most staff-based manuscripts.
Empty bars charged at £0.01p per bar.
Part extractions from scores prepared by us, from c.£5 per part.
Work involving much overtime will necessitate higher fees.
 
Publisher Service
Aimed particularly at music publishers, this music setting service offers origination of any kind of music notation from manuscript. We supply as many cycles of drafts (within reason) as you need for proof-reading, and then high-quality printed artwork (at 1200 or 1800dpi). We can also supply source or image files on disc instead of artwork, if preferred.
Price Guide
For most staff-based manuscripts:
c.£0.12p - £0.15p per staff-bar of score transcription, plus £2 per A4 page or £3 per A3 page of final product.
(Empty bars charged at £0.01p per bar)

This costing approach applies to all but the most complex manuscripts.
