No worries, the mixing process is the easy bit, it's getting the performance right and the editing that takes all the time and potentially costs a fortune.

The beauty of the home studio is you are not time constrained, imagine the cost of having to do 20 takes or punch ins in a 4 minute song, a few flubbed vocal or guitar lines and the clock spins.

Including setup and teardown time you've seen off a minimum of 2 hours of expensive studio time.

Welcome to the loss of life as you knew it
