this is sadly very trueOriginally Posted by Dustin Zahn
personally i think techno comes from a knowledge of how the machines work which becomes creative as you go along.
but i have engineered for plenty of "producers" who wouldn't know how to turn the computer on let alone write and mix a track and make it releasable.
also i know for sure that many other well known producers have their knobs tweaked by very talented engineers without whom you'd have to ask
"could this guy/girl do it on his/her own?"
with the emphasis very much these days being on production to get you noticed isn't it a bit of a cheat?
in fact time for a new topic
