Music/Sound Department Issues and Solutions

We are a startup working to address the issues encountered by music professionals in the film and game industry. Your answers will help us amend and better design our plugins. Would you like to contribute to our research? You will have pre-release access to our products as they're released if you choose! This survey should take 5-10 minutes depending on how detailed you are.

Have you worked for any of these companies or similar in the music department specifically? This question is to gauge what level in the industry you've worked at and how it relates to our goals.
