I personally, need to work on that preset issue. I lean on them too much, and need to learn to crank out my own sounds. As for everything else, I'm pretty good, but need to get better overall. :) Rock solid advice, man! I personally, need to work on that preset issue.

Darn, I feel a bit guilty of a number of those problems, but I guess I am an amateur, so that makes sense. I use Melodyne and Auto-tune a lot- would anyone mind giving me their honest opinion if my use of auto-tune on Be Enough is poor? www.myspace.com/KeatsHandwriting (its the first song that plays automatically) I love this site, BTW... Cheers, Joel Great post…

I wholeheartedly concur with improving upon the quality of the sounds in your library. Always keep seeking out newer and better sounding libraries. I'd love to take my music to the next level and create sounds on my own, but I'm more of a songwriter and want the sounds already at the highest level. Also, I get inspired by the sounds designed by others. I equate it to having a good set of paints and a brush. As a producer, I paint the picture, but I don't make the paint. Great article.
