Some stores warranty used gear so thats an option to look into if you are worried about buying used.

[@hollileslie8105]

This is such great advice. I relieved so many burdens on myself when I started taking studios and producers to record vocals, because I do not have a skill or equipment to do so. Learning how to do that when I’m already, so skilled instrumental stuff would have been a waste of my time when I can just delegate.

[@tonyharrison8332]

My first time watching your video and I was very impressed. I'm from old school and didn't want to have anything to do with social media but I now understand how important it is to promote my music. I really just got started and have almost 400 subscribers and I don't know how that happened, but now with this knowledge who knows what I can accomplish. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@night_shade_]

Congratulations!! That’s so epic!

[@yzxd1]

i feel like this needs to be in perspective of all kinds of artists, it’s easy to make a video for social media when you’re making a type beat. But if i’m a recording artist and i make a song with someone else’s beat then to make an interesting video you would have to dance or do something amazing with your song in the background.
