Some Tips on Music Production

 

Before you begin on a new composition, let me give you some production tips.

 

Save often

Learn the shortcut [Command+S (Mac) / Ctrl+S (Windows)] and use it often. I have made it a habit to save every time I play back a file. To me, this is like buckling a seat belt or flushing the toilet. I haven't had a catastrophic loss of a project during my musical careers.

 

 

Don't admire your own work

When inspiration strikes, get it down and move on quickly while you are hot. If you created a great section, beat, whatever, give it a quick listen and get to the next chore. Listening to your own music too much makes you narcissistic. Narcissist, the myth says, fell in love with his own reflection in the water and didn't do anything productive with his life.

 

 

If you have to work too hard on an idea, it's probably not a good one

I have found that my best productions are also the fastest. This situation may be slightly different for a beginner still learning concepts, but I still believe that a solid, simple, easy to accomplish idea is better than an elaborate project that doesn't get completed.

 

 

Copy and Paste identical sections

If all of the verses and chorus sections have the same music, record it once and paste it into other sections.
