  • So many young record producers today made their money in drug sales and then moved into the recording industry and have made millions. People like Cash money millionaires of Cash money records were able to funnel that money from drugs into a business.  While decent people who have never broken the law have never been able to break into this industry. It has been my dream to own my own recording studio to make other people's dreams come true. How can I do this? Help

  • Totally agree with areuter727. Every town in North America with a population over, like, 50 people has a 'recording engineering institute'.  They all follow the same pattern. They want TONS of YOUR money (because nobody can make any money actually making recordings anymore), there are no serious prerequisites (because they want your money), you get a worthless 'qualification' if you can call it that, then you find out there isn't a single job in the entire world for recording engineers.

  • this guy is amazing

  • He's got a point about Michael Jackson records, I never really noticed but go put some headphones on and listen to ANY of his songs -- even streamed from a compressed YouTube vid they're sonically amazing....

  • I always wanted to get into recording but could never afford the school or the gear. I'm SO glad I never got into that business. Hardly anyone that spent their years and money on their recording career is making money. Not when Garageband or Logic is available. What used to cost millions of dollars in gear, studio space and hired engineers can be done on a laptop by a kid in his bedroom. And the software will only get more powerful.

  • As a home recording engineer, I am sure without a doubt that I will never stop learning. I am depending on that little flame inside me that knows it will always get better and easier. I appreciate this video in so many ways. Thank you for your insight. I always look to people like yourself who are experienced and are there to help us.

  • @freedomatwhatprice You have to consider though that those people grew up in difficult conditions, and instead of wasting the money they made in the black market they invested into something legitimate which is the smart thing to do. Other ethnic groups did this in the past in America, the Kennedys got their start from bootlegging liquor during prohibition.

  • from what i have learned its not what you use but how you use it (considering producing) as far as artists and reputation.... it aint what you know but who you know..... why do you think lil wayne is famous? ive heard amazing songs from studios in Austin Texas that should have gotten radio play long before all of this other shit thats on the radio

  • Gary Granite is 100% correct. Recording Engineering is not something you can make a living from anymore.

  • The main issue is nobody is willing to pay for recording anymore. Everyone expects recording to be free, or close to it. Try to make a living when you get paid either nothing, or $5/hr which is essentially the same thing. Recording Engineering is a dead profession. Any money spent on those bogus 'recording institutes' is money flushed down the drain. You will never, ever, make any significant income from it. useless

  • @freedomatwhatprice Research Sun Studio in Memphis. You could build a studio like that for a very low investment. Some of the greatest music ever recorded came from tiny studios like this. Let the big boys keep spewing there megabuck souless crap and get real. Get organic. Motley Crue's first album is their best album. The Beatles recording were done on 4 tracks. Listen to the Platters. You don't need much money. You need talent, imagination, passion, heart and an open mind. Have you got those?

  • @Multipurposevids you can remix michael jackson all you want. but its not gonna be better than the original. fanny
