What exactly are you doing when you're "demoing" or doing pre-production? 

Are you capturing ideas? Working on the songs? Refining the arrangements? Recording scratch tracks?

All of that is fine and important, but the time you spend working on the songs and recording demos is actually still part of the writing process, while pre-production is a whole other step on the journey to a final record. 

The songs and arrangements should be finished (or close to finished) at this point, because there's still a lot more to do and to focus on in pre-pro than just capturing scratch tracks. 
 
So let's chat about the real reason(s) to doing pre-production, as people tend to either treat it as a part of the writing process or just as being about laying down tracks to record to.


Let's go!
