    When you added that fade to the reverb vocal, you were also about 5 spots away from being able to reverse it in 1 click. Lot easier than “double click, file, drop down menu, reverse”

    So I'm thinking of doing the bootcamp, and I just wanted to ask if it's something that's useful for my skill level. Is it more of a beginner thing, or would you consider it something that can equally benefit a variety of people who are in a variety of places throughout their production journey? I began producing in 2018, and took your other course to begin learning. So I've been doing it for nearly 2 years, however I don't yet feel too happy or confident when it comes to the quality of my music. I haven't taken any other courses or anything yet so I'm pretty sure I'd like to do your bootcamp, but I just wanted to ask you to make sure that it's definitely something that would fit me and where I'm at.
    Thanks for all the videos :)

  • @Whocares999
    @Whocares999 3 роки тому +9

    Difficult times now, but have no doubt whenever I have the money I'm joining that bootcamp. I can clearly see(not just because of this video) you know the tricks and techniques to take productions and mixing to a proper "make-a-living-out-of-music" level. So I'll see you inside at some stage!.
    btw , I think it would be really cool if you could do a remix contest or smth like that to give away a bootcamp subscription to the winner :P.
    looking forward to your next video, Stay safe maestro!
