Invoicing & kit billing for production sound mixers

As a production sound mixer, your kit fee is often as big as your day rate — the cart, the recorder, boom, and every wireless channel. Slater keeps the labor and the kit rental on the same job so your invoice reflects everything you brought.

The problem

Kit fees vary by production, wireless is often billed per channel, and expendables like batteries and timecode add up fast. Reconstructing all of it at invoice time — across several overlapping gigs — is where money quietly gets left on the table.

What Slater does for sound mixers

Track day rate and prep — log labor per production, including prep and travel days.
Bill your sound package — attach the cart, recorder, and per-channel wireless as a kit fee on the job.
Charge expendables — batteries, timecode, and consumables get itemized, not eaten.
Save reusable packages — build your standard sound package once and reuse it every quote.
See outstanding vs paid — a live total of what's owed across every production.

How it works

Add a job per production, log your days and your sound package kit fee, then generate an invoice at wrap. Slater tracks paid vs outstanding automatically.
