Welcome back to Audio Path! In this episode, we dive into the first half of what it takes to bring a song to life—from rough idea to polished track—before it ever hits streaming platforms.

We walk through the real-world steps of recording: scratch tracks, studio sessions, editing, mixing, and mastering. Whether you're flying solo or working with a band, we share actionable advice, hard-earned insights, and some funny horror stories to help you better understand the full recording journey.

Whether you’re new to recording or knee-deep in your next project, you’ll walk away with clear next steps and maybe even a little inspiration to level up your craft.

Stay tuned for Part 2, where we get into the release process.
