Hello guys.. How are you all doing? Well,i am happy to tell you guys that i am grateful to come across this music community. I see we have alots of legend of music producers here.
What do i mean by:
LIFE OF A MUSIC PRODUCER/MIXING ENGINEER
You know,sometimes people believe that been a music producer is an easy task.But no,its not.. Been a music producer requires alot of self decipline and attention. I am a huge fan of music,i listen to music alots,from there i started thinking of becoming a music producer and aslo a singer. I have some friends who are already a musician i reach out yo them,telling them the desire and passion i have for muic production and song writing. He directed to a studio far from home. I didn't see that as an obstacle,i appreciated him alot and after collecting my secondary school certifcate,i hurriedly shaped to the state where the studio was located. After moving to the state,the studio was a little bit far from the place i lived,i didn't the cost of taxi i pay everyday. My first time at the studio was quite awsome... Atleast i met the producer who owns the studio.He told me some couple of thing i needed to make the learning go smoothly. He also me some rules,basics guiding the studio. I appreciated him alot.
MY FIRST TASK AT IN THE STUDIO
Earlier on,i told you guys that thought it was an easy something,my first job was to set a temple,and make a beat of 8 bars. Lol😹, throughout that day,i was just romancing playing with the system.
I went and told my boss that i couldn't do it,i felt so bad and ashamed of my self. You know why? Its because my boss teach me everything i got to do but i forgot everything within an hour. I left the studio that day,went home,take my bathe and dash straight to youtube watch plenty of videos and slept off. The next morning i move to the studio again,went straight to my system and this time around i was able to accomplish my task lol. Sounds great right?
After some weeks at the studio, i began to learn how to record an artist and also mix a song. During this time, a jiggi came to join me ,and we are now two learning music production.
He asked me some cuople of question like:
- What Does a Music producer do?
My reply was: I used him as a sample, if he is a musical engineer,he as the engineer works under the seeing of that producer. His main work is to use his common sense and skill to make sure the artists and the producers acception come to pass. On a norms,we the engieers are responsible for mixing the tracks.
He also asked me:
CAN ONE BE A MUSIC PRODUCER/ENGINEER?
Some of us mix and merg the words engineer and producer in the context of recording a song in the studio. Well, to me me they are both essential and needed in the process of recording. They actually have different task to perform though. The muisic engineer and the music producer work together to create a ep or album.
He also ask if:
WHAT DOES THE MIXING ENGINEER DO?
I told him the mixing engineer is responsible for compiling all the elements of a recorded pieces of music into a final destination before converting it to mp3. And also balancing the distinct part to achieve a particular effect.

This area is a whole science, it is even one of the areas I would like to learn a lot about. The aesthetics of mixing and learning how to use the tools to create beautiful music. Thank you for sharing your experience as a producer and telling us the reality of this wonderful and important work for the art.
