granted there's always something new to learn, after extensive reading of mags, books, message boards, and various sites...i'm starting to feel thirsty for more knowledge, but i'm havin' trouble finding it...

i'm way top heavy on the book knowledge vs. experiance (i'm only dooin' about 2 paying recording gigs a month on avg.) but i still have the thirst...

so i guess i'm gonna start diving deeper into mastering (and really, i'm starting to think i've got the ear for it) i'm just out of good sites to digest....i'm lookin' for some real in-depth type stuff on theory, bob katzs' "K" system, and perhaps even physics...i donno where to start. any good ideas? the deeper, the better.


and for those who don't know, Bruce Miller is still dooin' a free audio course here bamaudioschool.com/crsindex.html it's quite nice.

here's a few more good sites loaded with juicy info...

Your learning courve is bound to go flat now and again, after all, you've learnt so much in the last few years, we've all watched that happen - you're like super-learning dude.

So now advice, just a compliment from me.
