    most people asking if something is wrong with you to spend so much time in your studio, its just because the have no clue how complex this field is. they have the idea its simple and easy done to create a track.

    The reason I don't talk to people about "how it's made" is because when I start with all the dBs, Hzs, Qs, K-14/20, DDP, thresholds, envelopes, automation and whatnot, they stare at me as if they've seen Donald Trump's arsehole 10cm from their mouth. :hahaha: You discuss these things with people who understand these things. :wink: Many people whom I meet for the first time have troubles understanding what I do, and I have troubles explaining them what I do.

    How would you like a discussion with a quantum physicist about the newly discovered particles and what they mean for us? It's better to discuss it with people on forums, eh? :winker:

    If they're that random, why get so worked up about it.
    I think you need to open your eyes.

    Thats like saying if I took up art as a 2nd hobby it would devalue the works of Picasso.
    I make music for fun and as a release. If I didnt I would probably need to see a shrink and take meds. Nope, Ill stick to the DAWs.

    Protectionism is a poor view on what you do, @PAULOPAUZUDO . Where did you get your knowledge from before becoming "procducer"? Certainly not from other "non-producers"! If you are so frightened that others could become an insight, then you are very insecure wether your work will stand against newcomers.
    Share your knowledge. Mankind wouldn't have come very far, if people would have kept their insights. Imagine Pythagoras not teaching about his experiences in maths. Newton not talking about his clues about Physics. DaVinci not having students for his painting techniques.

    I'll end my post with a quote from J.S. Bach, who created Das wohltemperierte Klavier
    "for the profit and use of musical youth desirous of learning, and especially for the pastime of those already skilled in this study".

    @PAULOPAUZUDO
    if you have the gift of beeing able to create music, it is you're duty to share it with the rest of us humans :mates::guru:
    im saying this sitting here in my glass house throwing stones:rofl::dont:

    but you get the idea. i know you feel fustrated with these issues so you better take a good long hard look in the mirror and figure out who you truely are and what you want to achive with YOUR music.

    at the end of the day, the words "producer" "artist" are mearly labels people stick on things. they do not defne YOU. that job is on yourself

    Exactly what is supposed to, but the first guy I said it does't understand what a example is.

    As a producer, surely you have an opinion on the subject, which I would be most interested to hear.

    No I don't. For real. I don't think about it. I'd tell you if I had one. But I don't.

    I think I did. As did the rest of us.
    You asked me if I was a girl, to which I replied, that you need to open your eyes.

    Someone sounds triggered. Why waste brainpower concerned about these trivial matters? Just focus on music if your a real producer as you claim.

    Strange that really, coming from someone who worries so much about us normals as you put it F##$ing up the art. When you have producers using things like autotune, which as a normal, I feel is destroying the art. Maybe your concern is misdirected.

    The Changelog of me Processing OP's Post…

    "Reading… "humble guy...dadadada… work devil…"
    Process: Hmmmm, odd, okay, just introverted maybe
    Reading: Producer vs Non-Produchers
    Processing: makes dichotomoy between Producer vs Non-Produchers. Why? = more odd…
    Reading: "shit hits the fan"…"cancerize"…what?
    Processing: Wait, what… is he talking about. What is his question?
    Need…
    more…
    processing…"

    Done!

    Answer: To me it feels like that you are very contradictory in your mindset. On one hand music is sacred to you. It's your very private intimate thing. But on the other hand you are almost disgusted about the people who are more extroverted and like to celebrate their work and get credit for it. Maybe you need to make up your mind if you are fine with staying low key or if you need more recognition from others of the outside world. Find out what it is. It's either or. And once you made up your mind you can stop haitin' on people who have a different approch on how they incorporate music in their lives. PEACE
