In the introductory part, we discuss how to choose the right studio equipment and set up your studio. The next chapters are dedicated to the biggest mistakes in electronic music production and how to avoid them. We go into detail on mixing and arrangement, but also tackle some basic issues that often arise in music production. In the fourth part, we cover mixing your most important sounds and elements, producing beats and dive into creative sound design with concrete, easy-to-follow instructions. I avoided focusing on specific genres, so most of these tips can be applied to a range of electronic music genres, be it (melodic) techno, ambient, IDM, trance, or house.
