How many of you have had people tell you this?
I realize its people who have no clue how songs are actually recorded or have ever been recorded.
Back in the 1970s when I was in High School, I would go to a concert (Rush, Ted Nugent, The Who, Sammy Hagar, Poco, Little River Band, etc.), and I would say to myself, why does it sound like that? The album sounds much better! Because I knew absolutely nothing about music, recording, mixing, effects, mastering, etc.
Now I know just a bit more than I did.
So when someone finds out I used a drum machine, or a VST this or that, to them its like Guitar hero video game or something.
So I'm assuming when I get this response from someone, its because their idea of making a song requires a group of people playing instruments and recording it onto a real-to-real tape machine?
I also have learned they don't want to see the sausage being made.
I'm just wondering if I'm the only person getting this.
thanks.
