I think it saves time in the long run and everyone is happier with the results. I'll discuss vision, arrangement, reference tracks, etc. Mainly trying to get into the mind so I can choose how to best record and plan the session. I've only worked with local artists so I find many appreciate this as it helps them think things through as well and some haven't considered some of these things depending on experience. I usually spend a couple hours on small projects. Disclaimer, I'm particularly anal about things...;-)
