You might be saying "I'm doing it all on my own, don't have hard deadlines and I enjoy the process, so why would I need to speed up?"
Well, wouldn't it be great to be able to spend all that time and energy you have working on the creative things that really matter and never again let that moment of inspiration go by without taking advantage of it?
Imagine how focussed you would be and how that would benefit your end result and also the satisfaction you'd get from it! You could be 100% in creator mode, just doing the things necessary to get your art out without having to think about them.
That flow state is what we all are going for when doing creative things. We want to free up as much mental capacity as possible, make intuitive decisions and just go for it.
That's why we made this episode for you. We're sharing a pretty comprehensive list of things we do to speed up our workflow and make creating cool stuff easier for us. Some of it is pretty basic, some things are pretty advanced. Some will save you time and energy directly, some will take a little more work, but will make it easier for you to get to the desired end result.
It's not just about shortcuts, hotkeys, or productivity apps. It goes much deeper than that. And it's definitely not about cutting corners or compromising anything. Not at all. Quite the opposite, actually.
Listen now to supercharge your creativity, speed up the process and discover new approaches to recording your band.
