Where's that fouse?

Ramblings of a fouse;
So.... after a bit of a hiatus I'm back, and more musically focused. I've learned a lot of things and will be putting this knowledge to good use as soon as I have the funds to get the equiptment I need to apply my knowledge. Until then.... another WIP.
"Why?", you ask? Because I want it to sound good and have only just recently been informed why my stuff sounds GREAT in the studio and like a muddled MESS elsewhere. Measures are being taken and formats are being changed, but the long and short of it is I was using the wrong equiptment for the wrong job. (or rather, the RIGHT equiptment for the Wrong job).
I've learned a lot in the last few days in regards to music, eq, mixing, mastering, mic-ing, and even just recording in general and I've found out that to get where I want to be with my music, because I'm quite picky with what I'm willing to call "finished", I need to throw down some serious cash for the stuff I want to work with.
Is it pricey? Yes. Do I make a lot of money? No(ha). Are there other options? Always. But the important part here is that I write my music from the heart. I throw absolutly everything I've got into it. So if I have to wait another two or three months so I can get the gear I WANT to bet the sound I WANT to feel that I've put everything that I can possibly put into it. I'll do that. In the meantime, expect WIP's and instrumentals with few parts. Those I can put out in a satisfactory manner and not feel that I've cheated my audience by cutting corners.
