I want to learn how to mix and master on my own. You can do your own mixing and mastering on most DAW software these days. I wanna learn how to do it so I can produce my own music. I want to produce my own sound and vision of where I want my music to go. I’m not the best at producing but I want to get better at it and improve. I really want to learn how to do this. Produce my own music and make my songs sound really really good on my own.

Jimmy Page produced all of his own music mostly. The man was a genius in the studio and he knew what he was doing. He never went to school or anything to learn how to produce. He taught himself how to use the mixing console pretty much. I think he learned by watching others do it.

If I want to learn how to produce better… there are all kinds of instructional books on the internet on “mixing & mastering”. I’m about to look through all those and try to find a good book.

Best of all, I know someone who is really good with that stuff ’cause he went to college for “producing” music and got a degree in it so maybe I’ll pay him to teach me some basic stuff to start off with. Another option, there are tons of local studios around this area that offers courses on how to produce your own music but I’m sure their pricing rates would be sky high, though.

I wanna get better at audio recording. I know I just can’t record tracks and leave them right where they are. I know I got to improve the tracks and make them sound better.

I want to follow Jimmy Page’s footsteps and record and produce my own music like he did over the years. I’m gonna look into all of this sometime this year.
