This panel will trace the progress of producing a record all the way from the writing of a song, it's pre-production, basic recording and "sweetening", through the mixing and the mastering. Rather than focusing on "the Guy Wearing the Producer's Hat". Our panel discussion will pay special attention to the skill sets necessary for each link in the chain, and how technology has dramatically blurred these elements - and how a growing number of people are mastering the Art of Recording to produce their own material. Panelists include Jack Douglas, Shelly Yakus, CJ Vanston and Eric Boulanger.
