professional vs empirical

In the world of audio everything started in an empirical way, but by professionals from other areas, the people who had recording studios, at that time professional, were electrical engineers, in the area of ​​mechanics, scientists, who had a certain curiosity about the music and the world of audio, after all, for who would not be interesting to investigate and study how to turn something physical into electronic, manipulate it and return it to its original state in sound impulses?

To get into the world of audio you really had to like, be willing to do everything, and learn as much as you could, since there was no way to learn it other than sitting in a chair to record, or being in the process in some way In fact many of the best engineers of today, who worked in legendary studios such as abby road, or soundcity, started preparing coffee or cleaning the bathrooms of the rooms.

Currently having access to this technology is easier thanks to the arrival of the digital age, but with this came the "Do it yourself" something very good, but very bad for the music industry and the audio world, since any person could make music at home, which led to the discovery of a large number of incredible musicians who might never have had the opportunity to be heard, very good engineers with great talents, or genres that today are very important for the industry, but also a drop in musical quality due to the quantity of productions without concept or musicality.

Evolution always has obstacles in the way, but I think it was necessary all this, as decades ago, the empirical came out great talents, and thanks to accessibility others with less talent could be polished in schools for today to be excellent professionals in the area, also many musicians used this to help make their songs, models or something to show as a non-professional medium.

But from the empirical also comes the bad, very low level productions of people with no interest in studying, or with the ego high enough to destroy a song without realizing it, there are many bands that have fallen for this evil, which is partly the fault of the musicians, either for wanting to save money or for thinking that 100% of the time you record in a room will be a good recording, for that is the professional way of doing things.

With professional I do not mean studies of millions of dollars, I mean a team of people who know what they do and because they do it, knowledge is a great power that generates positive results in almost 100% of cases, there are people with a laptop that are professionals and will do a quality job, but you should know that the more you invest in your music, the better the quality of your product.
