i suppose i'd be able to zone in on certain areas, ask exactly what i want to know. problem is though there would be more than a days worth of questions.. hehe. i worked with a mate before for about 6 months who'd done 2 years of sound engineering and is well good at what he does. been makin tunes for 7 years, makes all kinds of music, done live, studio and film work too. i found that i'd often end up with really good tunes, but when i went off to do it for myself i would encounter problems. think that was mainly due to me wanting things to sound a cartain way and then him goin and makin the sound and me not following properly what he'd done. all part of the learning curve though.
the thing is im lacking some of the technical knowledge that i'd like to have. makin good headway at present, gettin stuck right in. every time i sit down and do a bit of work i fugure out loads. a day in a studio would be a bit further down the line. when i know my shit properly and then want to polish things up. just have to win rowland the bastards competition....

working for a day or two would probably get me the end result of some savage tunes but there is a possibility i might be left with a load of 'why's' at the end of it. dont like those 'why' bits.... :)

cheers
