Being new to the DAW method of production, I'm wrestling with the most fundamental question: What foundation to begin from?
In the first case, i played and sang a scratch track, then added bass, new vocals, drums and piano. Getting the timings right was a huge effort.
Next i started with a MIDI file from Chordify which of course had all the exact measures. This time the hard part was playing into the grid with steady tempo! Of course i should note that I'm a completely amateur musician!
Is there an established common method of how to start?
