If you can’t play a musical instrument with authority but want to emulate an authentic professional performance, then this video is for you.
Many music producers don’t actually play an instrument. They might know their way around a keyboard and get a feel for what sounds good, but can’t knock out a performance on cue.
Whilst that shouldn’t hold you back, it can put you at an obvious disadvantage when it comes to programming an instrument when compared to an expert recording.
I want to draw back the curtain on some ideas that I think can give musicians an edge over non-musicians. Hopefully, you can use these ideas to make your tracks sound more authentic and musical.
