    Becoming a music producer

    Dude it is one of the #1 rules of sales in any market. And kinda a sales 101 thing. I bet now that you know about it you will start to observe it all over the place.

    Becoming a music producer

    Some good advice in here, but these articles at the end of the day never talk about how to actually get clients. How to close deals, how to get the NEXT clients ETC. You can talk rates all day, but with no customers its a waste of time.

    business

    Personally I would never work with someone who leases beats for $6.99 and I would never lease a beat for that. Either the project is amazing and I am doing it for free and we both benefit because it will go somewhere or its 1k MINIMUM per track for me to produce and I mean PRODUCE not here's a...

    Studio mics upside down?

    You do it to keep the stand out of the way. Its pretty simple. It does not wear and tear your mic any more or less.

    It makes no difference one way or the other. Its just a convenience thing.

    What DAW do you use?

    I try to use reason for most of my work but I just got a really complicated project that has me working in live and studio one. Been playing with sonar x2 and fl as of late as well. But reason will always be my baby. :)
