These are some of the trails ans tribulations of what I had to learn the hard when trying to enter the music business. Before I relieved to invest in my own studio. I had sent thousands of dollors on studio time, but I wasn't experienced enough to record at that level to make them recording sessions count in regards to making an impact in the music scene. The experience of building my own studio for what waits ahead in the future. At the present day I can produce, write, and mix my own songs. Bring so busy I rarely have the time to do all three, but its more yhem benefitial to have the option to save money in that aspect if I needed to. I must admit there is something special when you make a hot song right at the studio. But if a songs hot its hot no matter how it came about.The absolute biggest reason to build your studio up piece by piece (or a few pieces at a time) is that it forces you to learn your gear. I mean really learn your gear inside and out. Think about it: if you buy an entire mic collection from day 1, after a handful of recording sessions you might only have scratched the surface on what your mics can do. Contrast that to the person who starts out with a simple $100 microphone for a couple of years. After the same handful of recording sessions, that one mic guy is going to the full capabilities of his only mic because he’s been forced to lean on it alone to get all of his dToo many people have too much gear that they know too little about. This trend plagues the home recording market and creates a plethora of weakly formed opinions on the gear in question.

Financially you are spending the same amount of money on paper, but in reality you are spreading those purchases out over time, allowing you to squeeze as much musical juice ouIt’s also a way of forced deferral of money being spent. If you wait to get that DAW upgrade next year, you allow yourself time to make some extra cash to pay for it. And all the while you are getting more projects done with your current DAW version. Thus you get more value for money already spent. Plus you are learning more about your DAW t of every dollar you spend. better reviews if people actually took the time to use the darn stuff!
