    #9 is what people need to hear. It applies to everything you said prior and after.
    If you put in work. EX: 8+ hours a day researching production, audio engineering, etc... your chances increase! Regardless of what you learn from it, you're DOING IT.
    If you get a decent mic, a basic program (cakewalk) is perfect for beginners and FREE. You will learn about yourself, the process, and it allows you to embark on a whole separate journey that will broaden your perspectives!

    Hey I see that you have logic's stereo spread plugin loaded up on the screen in the background. What do you use it for? I don't so many people/engineers that use it.

    • @SkyeLabMusicGroup
      @SkyeLabMusicGroup  3 роки тому

      Not really much, I just picked as many interesting looking plugins that I could fit on the screen as a backdrop. But I actually do occasionally use it. But it does some weird phasing thing that doesn't sound great in mono. For stereo spread I usually go to PA Stereomaker, or the Soundtoys Microshift. Or if I just want to widen the existing stereo image, then Waves S1 Imager works well, sometimes.

    sir, Congratulations for all that incredible info, is the music business that I was studying for 3-4 years until to learn and practice them. but, I get one question out of them, How an artists should make money and pay for their recordings-mixing and mastering? Through a 9-5 job(anything or teaching music)? or playing live at gigs performing cover songs? Others, can do it through playing live at streets collecting donations. . . what do you think about it? and what do you suggest that is the best possible way?

    • @SkyeLabMusicGroup
      @SkyeLabMusicGroup  5 років тому +1

      That has always been the big question. :) And I think the answer is whatever is right for you, may not be right for another person. And everyone that I know in the music industry that has had any success has a completely different story then everyone else. There is no standard career path in this industry. Good luck, and continue to learn as much as you can and hopefully you'll keep taking positive steps upwards.

    What am I guilty of? Sitting on music. I tend to only release one track per year and constantly tweak...

    • @SkyeLabMusicGroup
      @SkyeLabMusicGroup  5 років тому +1

      It's hard to build any momentum with only a song a year! You also run the risk of overshooting it. Meaning it might have been better before the last 2 months of tweaks. (but maybe not :)
