Talking to other producers. This especially helped in the very early stages of me trying to find my feet in the world of music production. Big thanks to Shep and Haak, because you two helped me out even when I was a bigger newbie than I am now! :D
Collaborating with other producers has also taught me a lot. Shep, Nik and most recently Bren, thanks for letting me work with you guys! :)
Feedback loops are important too. I have learned a lot through listening to people's comments. |

I think the best thing i ever did was spend the $400.00 on my Alesis Micron.Ever since i bought it i have been addicted to creating heavy and akward sounds and it made a huge diffrence in my mix.
I used to just fruity for 2 years and no vst's.But last year i decided to get some vst's but didnt like them to much but when i went to guitar center and tryed the micron i was like WOW.i tryed variouse other synths like the microkorg (which sucked).
For the price its incredible thats all i can say.
discovering the quality of compression and good eqing as well. |

Chronologically, these steps helped the most to improve my production skills:
1. Acquiring really good (drum) samples
2. Moving to a modular environment
3. Gaining an in-depth understanding of how subtractive synthesis works
4. Buying really ing awesome monitors and a good sound card |

reading topics here and listening to other producers works in Amateur Promotion, moving from FL 3 to FLS 5 and getting hold of good drum samples..
now I'm planning to buy a new computer (I'm still working on a P3 with 384 mb of ram :() with hopefully 2G+ ram, a new soundcard and a pair of monitors. |

Heh. Same here.
It's not only what you hear, it's what you don't hear. |
