15 Mistakes Every Music Producer Makes

Save Hundreds of Hours By Avoiding these Beginner, Intermediate and Professional Mistakes!
In this video I'm going to show you the biggest 15 mistakes every beginner intermediate and professional music producers make.
Some of the mistakes we will be looking at will include printing out DAW shortcuts to have in front of you, find other musicians to work with or shadow, learn some basic music theory both in rhythm and melody, learn how to write song structure including a verse and chorus, learn how to use automation, learn how to use buses in your DAW, follow your ears and not your eyes, don't overmix, record some real sounds, chop up samples, be careful with your external storage and doubling up project locations, learn how to promote your music production business, document your music creation, practice getting onto spotify playlists and local radio, and make sure that you are looking out for mistakes that you make.
I really hope this video helps you in your own music production journey!

What mistake would you add to this list? 🤔

[@Bittamin]

Not knowing that you can curve the automation in logic 🤦‍♂️😭 is there a chance you can make a video or already have one on this? Even if it’s just a short on how to switch it from a line to a curve. I’ve been just using latch and kind of performing my automation while playing the tracks to get more interesting results but, being able to use that curve would speed things up

[@JayKayz0r]

@@Bittamin in ableton is shift click or alt click and drag, i never remember, both DAWs have many similarities in shortcuts so i'd give that a try

[@HOLLASOUNDS]

Dont keep everything on the grid, having stuff a bit off grid makes it sound better and more natural.

[@ed_ms]

Not saving every project you start, no matter what's in it. Every once in a while reopen projects from some time ago. A meaningless silly 4 bar loop you made a year ago, could be the spark you need to finish it or make a new song. Or sometimes you find it was not good any way. In that case delete it, and save yourself some drive space. win win 😉

[@Bittamin]

@@JayKayz0r thank you I’ll give it a try!

[@HeyVedant]

Another mistake, don't ever buy Bluetooth headphones for music production, it'll cause a lot of latency

[@93Acres]

Absolutely! Bluetooth latency is a nightmare. Speakers as well 😅

[@HeyVedant]

@@93Acres yes, man, I tried to produce with my bluetooth headphones and it was a nightmare

Bluetooth isn't a wide bandwidth either so you're not hearing full quality audio

Seriously the suggestion of learning and mastering the key of C for beginners is genius because if you master one you'll understand the others. So genius. RIP Avicii

[@93Acres]

Absolutely ATAM. Really makes keys & chord theory much more approachable. Avicii will always be a legend 🙏

[@datapusher-]

Learning how to mediocrely play an instrument like the guitar or piano will even help you understand keys and scales. Also a guitar is great way to fast track basic melodies. Record into DAW -> Transpose to midi file -> copy midi onto your synth track = Magic.

[@93Acres]

@@datapusher- Love this, super solid advice DP!

[@robbspencer]

If you learn c and Am you can transpose to perform absolutely anything…cheating, but hey….

[@tanelykiis5447]

Mixing on high volume will give you fatigue quickly. Mixing mainly on average/low volume helps you make better decisions.

[@93Acres]

Great shout that Tanely!

[@Denver_Risley]

"Finish the damn song" has been my mantra for a couple of years, now. That is probably the most effective over-all philosophy that I've adopted. Oh yeah, The native LOGIC plug-ins are fantastic....Once I bought gobs of expensive gear and found this out!

[@93Acres]

One hundred percent Sherpa! I've heard the phrase "Honour Your Vomit" used to encourage finishing tracks even if they don't seem perfect 😄

[@synchro505]

Something I learned from someone I collaborated with is to take a break from the mix and meditate or just chill while hearing the mix in your mind. This is especially handy for coming up with new melodies or section ideas. Also learned to keep pushing with new ideas and variations of the groove, melody, etc. and save them on the outskirts of the main mix. They can be brought in later or used as ideas for completely different tracks.

[@93Acres]

Great advice that Synchro thank you for sharing!

[@MatthewDanielsNB]

Whenever I keep pushing new ideas in a project file I wind up with a 7 min song with three key changes 😂

[@57kod]

I love your video!! To the point, no bragging, practical advice and friendly. Great job!

[@93Acres]

Glad it was helpful 57! Thank you 🙏

[@tonydesmet7389]

"The best way to learn is to teach": this is so true! I learnt parking well my car only when I was teaching it to my girlfriend. Having to explain something forces you to thoroughly think things through and discover its essence. In the programming community there is the common advice to have a rubber duck sitting on your desk to which you then explain the problem you are facing. (Having a colleague you can talk to is much better of course.)

[@93Acres]

Love it 😄

[@sword-and-shield]

Music is art. When it is a solo effort, especially, there is no wrong, just what sounds good to YOU. Its your art. Now if your trying to commercialize it, and that is your goal, your art will always reflect that goal and can sometimes make the process a grind. Instead, let your art be your art, if it hangs it hangs, if it falls it falls. At least you will never be wrong, and always enjoy the creation process and your art.

[@93Acres]

Love this S&S 🙌

[@Musicofmarvinglenn]

For me, my art is all about expressing myself without caring at all about what people may or may not think; about what their opinions may be. My messages to the world (and myself) are what motivate me. This world (humanity) needs to feel the presence, power and the love of Life. Our positive, harmonious art helps carry us through the process of growing up as a species.

[@sword-and-shield]

@@blindmelonstubbly Yeah, messing with the "formulas" if you want to call it, is what we enjoyed the most. As in verses, chorus, bridge, pre chorus, interlude, leads, etc. Always trying to see if a formula we haven't heard yet was viable. The order, structure, repetitiveness, length's etc. You wont get that with the commercial stuff.

[@LianDyogi]

Thanks for this Hugh! Really enjoyed your presentation style and friendly vibe. I’m definitely still intermediate and the automation tip is something I’ll experiment with this week! Cheers!

[@93Acres]

Ah thank you Lian, really delighted to hear that! Best of luck with your experimentation 🙌

[@andrejzwitter9637]

Another great video! Thanks!! One mistake to add: deleting or not saving musical ideas. I didn’t save many of my trial runs only to later hing to rediscover a tune sound or melody that I knew I had fiddled with earlier.

Happy to be of any help Norma!

[@BigDancin]

Learn the 3D aspect of mixing. Don't just use volume to make things more prominent or obscure in a mix - learn to use reverb, compression, panning and other tools to consciously place elements where they fit best to suit the material. Thinking of music recordings as a 3D exercise rather than a 2D loudness war will allow you to put the listener in the place where the song is happening, rather than just having it come at them.

[@93Acres]

[@mimix3555]

I appreciate that you reached out to others for their perspectives! I think my biggest pro tip I could give anyone that is serious about producing or mixing is by taking a class. (Preferably paid for and if they have well establishes courses) in my classes for example, they critique my mixes every month which is almost vital for my learning. KZbin is great at giving you the information for free, but because there's so much abundance of info, its almost impossible to get a proper timeline constructed for learning.

When idea comes for a part of the song, don't think you will have a better idea the next day, move forward your idea at maximum, it will trigger another ideas.

I’ve released on a few labels- never had a shortcut printout for Ableton because after like 2 weeks I should really know all the shortcuts, saves literally 100s of hours in your lifetime

[@93Acres]

Shortcuts are the best time saver for sure!

[@titovalasques]

👏👏👏👏 Excellent suggestions!! It's so easy to get caught up in buying tonnes of plugins that you in many cases never end up using more than once or not at all. I've even begun to strip down what I install as it gives me choice anxiety. And once you find a sound, render it to audio in order to make a commitment. This helps with computer performance as well.

[@sub-jec-tiv]

Important: Be nice to everybody, in fact be extra nice to people who may not be your cup of tea. It’s a tough game, and insecure or competitive people *will* try to tear you down if you’re making anything good. So you need to not be an easy target for other peoples’ hater tendencies. How do you do that? Be kind and low-key treat everyone like they’re a friend, even if they’re new or don’t seem ‘important.’ You know: be a decent human being. 😉 Also. Treat socializing like work if you’re a musician. Don’t get sloppy drunk at a club and do something upsetting; this is your workplace.

People confuse finding the right sound with fitting something in a mix. Those are two different stages of production. You can solo an instrument while you add effects and processors on it to find the right sound, but when it’s mixing time, those sounds have to fit together.

This would be the one thing I would love every beginner to know! Don't mix the Production & Mixing stage up. So so true. Thank you for that Carl 🙏

Perfection every time 🌟

[@GameInterest]

One thing no one ever seems to talk about is how much time is spent scrolling left and right in a track. It's much faster to use a 360 scrolling mouse. I use the Mighty Mouse from Apple but Microsoft makes the Arc which does pretty much the same thing. It saves loads of time instead of clicking and dragging or using the track pad.

[@rabarebra]

Or just use shortcut markers, one key - voila

[@rayphenicie7344]

Judicious use of saving and discarding. When first starting out the tendency is to want to keep every peep and meow that gets laid down. Save everything at first yes, but remember to go back and weed out that which is not worth keeping. Just went through and am still curating 12 years of 'save everything no matter what it is.' over 600 files later I can safely say: learn to be your own best friendly critic and sensibly decide to keep what's worth archiving for the future value and discarding oppsies and junk. Along those same lines, learn to build and reuse templates. I guess this applies to those of us in the symphonic field especially where we end up building large templates with lots of orchestral palettes only to discover there's only so much space in the virtual stage for a limited number of sounds. Eight French horns, six trombones, 3 tubas?! Really? However, having the right vibes from sampled sounds is critical for me as I'm moved to quite writr off if the sampled sound strikes me as cheesy or something akin to a ballet dress on a monkey. Stay in your lane as to which genres you're familiar with and producing for. For example, I'm not familiar enough with most of the popular styles (reggae, blues, Afro-Cuban, Funk, Hip-hop, Heavy Metal) so I'm staying with songs written in the Broadway musical style along with Classical influences.

[@freak9345]

Ngl, idk how people have trouble wit this stuff… If ur using headphones, you need to know them well. If you don’t, the mix will sound different depending on where you play it. Like a friends car. You should know how the frequencies act with the headphones. Also, no one hears with their eyes. Don’t pay attention to visuals (especially with EQ). When you compress dynamics, it’s almost impossible to make it normal again. When it comes down to it, people need to actually put the work in. Its extremely easy to recognize talent vs amateurs. If you think ear training, music theory and other necessary things for making music are boring and you skip it, I highly suggest you give up the thought of you making it “Big”. It won’t happen. Have fun doing what ur doing of course, but making a living will be extremely complicated and unnecessary.

That is some serious output

Please please PLEASE, if you haven't already, do a video on hotkeys and tips navigating Logic Pro X. Your videos are my new favorite thing to watch and I love when you do something so simple like, "just command+D to duplicate" and like, stuff like that changes my life hahah

[@93Acres]

Absolutely Patrick! I try my best to include all of the shortcuts I use in every video 🙌 That's a good idea making a video solely focused on my favourite shortuts. Maybe even a couple of shorts on it could be useful?

[@WPatrickOfficial]

@@93Acres Absolutely! I've learned more in the few videos of yours I've seen than in the years of playing around with the thing. Shorts would be great too, maybe with a little playlist of them stitched together? For sure you'd be the one to do it, your instructions on that stuff are so clean and concise.

Another hint. Create 10 short different songs ideas a day! Now if you think, this is stupid or not interested in, you should search for another pro job.

[@93Acres]

Got to put the effort in for sure Roger!
