In an industry of shrinking music production budgets, it is common that the audio engineer and music producer happen to be the same person. New technologies as well as new system designs in hardware and software further enforce this transition—not only in project/home studios. In addition to the risks of this development, there are also benefits: New production and studio strategies enable engineers to be more flexible to the changing demands of clients and artists while working more cost-effectively. This involves changes in common studio architecture and setup and a different recording workflow through the use of new technologies in DAWs, as well as less distinction between recording and mixing. A few specific examples and perspectives will be given.
