Some tricks and tips



# keep on a schedule. if you start putting things off it won't take long before you're in a track debt you won't be able to dig your way out of.

# new software takes extra time. the more esoteric formats generally have weird tools. weird tools that suck and are difficult to use and you're going to hate them. remember that you are going to need extra time to deal with these things.

# fuck your social life. friendships are fleeting but botb glory is forever.

# you are going to hit a wall. making this much music is emotionally draining and you're going to reach a point where you are just DONE. you just have to keep plowing ahead and be ready to call something "good enough."

"Making all formats is not that hard, making all formats with decent scores, that is pretty damn hard!!"
