I know it used to cost a fortune, still would i'm sure.

I've done several studio projects and brought in band members, not for whole albums but 3-4 songs, and i've spent over 2 grand, just recording, and then ther'es alway stuff that bothers you that you wished you could fix.

Then the cost of mastering and printing CD's, and at that point you haven't even put it up for sale yet.

Nowadays, it's all DIY types of musicians making computer recordings and selling them on CDbaby etc.

It makes a whole lot more sense to DIY, and/or use BIAB, but at the same time the music suffers. Music today isn't as good partly because one guy is playing writer, band, engineer and producer, and
most music produced today is all done to a click track, which weakens it considerably.

Yet, nobody seems to notice except old school musician/artists.

So what to do....
