AUDIO PRODUCTION
Audio Production, otherwise known as sound engineering is the behind the scenes process of creating music. This can vary from producing beats/instrumentals to modifying how the artist sounds. Audio Production is difficult to learn because it’s heavily reliant on the creativity and the passion of the producer. Producers have the opportunity to work closely with artists to fine tune little things to create the perfect song. Trial and error is huge in this industry, and producers will encounter failure.
