So trying not to come across as "that guy", but I have a question that I haven't really seen answered (maybe indirectly and I didnt catch it so here i am)....
I see talk about what DAW to use, song structure, "do i start with drums or melody?", etc, etc. But what I'm trying to figure out is where are some of the starting points for producers past this stage?
I've always been musically inclined. I understand music theory, I can play guitar, I'm mediocre at drums and piano, but I play. I've been messing around with ableton off and on for about a year, so I understand my way around the program, but I everytime I open it up I feel like i'm missing little pieces of knowledge that **** up my whole creative flow, like i hear it in my head but can't get it to come out of my speakers.... So after you pick a DAW, understand how to navigate through it, then what? sound design?
