I’ve been recording in my bedroom-turned-studio since I was 13. And my studio has grown into an amateur recording artist’s dream studio since then. I’m 20 now but I still find myself hitting roadblocks in the studio and digging for information on the internet. None of which is the most reliable information. I NEED this book!
Peace&Love,
Ryan
