This could be a long discussion but my lack of typing ability will make it sort of short. This is only a general comment and not at anybody at all.OK?
We have all of these wonderful tools available to us for recording, writing,one man bands on and on. Mixing, mastering, burning & more.Editing, cut, paste, fiddle. get what I'm saying? The issues come when a person can't use all these tools to create some masterpiece. Well the bottom line is that some folks just are not meant to do this. They don't have the skills, talent etc. to create this master piece. My advice to anyone is to evaluate your strengths and weaknesses and focus on the strengths and accept that things you just can't do.
I am never frustrated writing songs.Why? Because I realised many, many years ago that I was not a writer and just was not adept at that. Unfortunately there are also a lot of people that are not writers either and you hear, subjectively, some pretty bad material.
To say it another way I bet there are a bunch of folks that would LOVE to build their dream home with their own hands. You can buy all the tools, all the material etc. but I'd be willing to bet that even though all the stuff is available to build a house most would never consider it.My $.02
