It depends on how many points you spend on recording the album.

The more points you spend, the higher the cost increases, to represent the increased cost of spending longer in the studio I would assume.

yeah. i know it varies. i've only released 1 single, and if i recall correctly it costs £1,000,000 for the top producer at max points (35).

how much is it for the top producer when releasing an album using the max 150 points?

A single with max points (35) costs £350,000.

So obviously at max points each point costs £10,000. Don't know if that still applied at less than full points, I have to be honest. And I think that as you take each step down the ladder in the production scale the next producer costs 10% less. I THINK. I'm not totally certain

i don't think thats true. when i recorded my one and only single the top producer cost £1,000,000. i had to use Rubber Johnny, because i didn't have enough cash for a better producer. my single with max points consisting of 3 songs all rated above 95 was released with an 87 rating. i know i had at least £350,000, and i would have spent it on a better producer had it been an option.

An album is well over £1m. I'm sure it's nearer £1.5m

then call it a bug. i've been charging £99 per concert ticket since i was playing small clubs. i had well over £350,000, and could have easily afforded a better producer had it not costed so much.

Yeah but it doesn't actually charge 99 for each gig, it just charges the maximum available.
