I guess there are more steps than I anticipated: I counted making the recording of these songs as one step, when really there are also the steps of listening to the mix, evaluating it, deciding what songs (or parts of songs) to re-do, rehearsing more, going back to the studio to re-record and repeating this process until I’m satisfied with the recordings. THEN I can turn my attention to copyrighting, updating my music website and working as many hours as possible to save up for the next round of recording.
Next week I’ll go back into the studio and “touch up” five of the eight songs I did last week. They will be done by the end of the month as I’d planned, I just didn’t know it would be so close to the end of the month. And then I can stop rehearsing these songs! That will be GREAT.
