We hit 200 episodes! In celebration of this giant milestone, I recorded a special Q&A episode where I answered questions submitted by our audience about all things production and more.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT:

• Mike’s thoughts on the production of Metallica’s “black” album
• How many layers to record for heavy guitars
• My mic of choice for recording vocals
• How to find time to write a book
• What to do if you’re working on your music in a non-symmetrical room
• The simple way to gain-stage your tracks
• How to add top-end to your mixes without making them sound harsh
• Where to find Mike’s production portfolio
• Using reference tracks: Why you should use them, how to pick the right ones, what to do with them.
