I always found this was the case for me... I learnt lots more by making more tunes as apposed to spending ages trying to 'fix' a track that was fundamentally crap sounding to start with. I tended to repeat steps (to reinforce learning) and also try out new ideas and techniques this way....Z3NO wrote:I also generally find that forcing yourself to finish tunes (and end up with a long series of disappointing results) is not only counter-productive but also quite demoralising for many, and progress is often slow.
Approaching production from a different angle that yields quick gratifications, like working on individual sounds only or make the arrangement process more concise, is usually more stimulating and can benefit the learning curve.
Of course then judgement then has to come into play as to when its worth spending that but extra on a track.
