Never think you know it ALL!

BA (Hons) Open (Law, Social Sciences). Skillset: Business Development, Field Sales, Logistics/Transport Supervisor, Music Composition, Audio Production. Somerset UK (Remote/Hybrid/Own Studio) So, let's connect!
We never stop learning, there is always something new to explore, new products entering the marketplace and new ideas spoken about in tutorials and forums.
I frequent the #Reaper users groups a lot on Facebook for handy tips about working with Reaper as my chosen DAW. I also follow composers who have their own YouTube channels such as Guy Michelmore at #ThinkSpace Education, an absolute goldmine of information for composers.
In the past few weeks, I have been playing with parallel compression on vocals and on certain instruments, with some amazing results. I have also been changing the way I program drum tracks and being a little more adventurous when I don't have a drummer to record a live track for me.
As a long time studio producer, I have worked at some terrific recording studios over the years and produced quite a few artists, so have also learned a lot from engineers I have worked with along that journey.
BUT.... I am still learning. Every day I am keen to move forward with new ideas, new products (when finances allow) and tips on the best way to achieve those sounds you long for on a particular track.
So my tip to you today is, whatever side of the business you are in, keep searching for new ideas and new information, keep improving your skillset and keep pushing your limits!
