Recently, while working on a marketing project and driving the clients social media content, I realized that a large portion of the client's following were musicians. After brainstorming a few angles to exploit potential marketing opportunities, I began to think of just how hard it is to successfully penetrate the music industry. This led me to do some online research (where else do we research anymore?) and I found Waves. Waves is an online merchant providing signal processing solutions for professional, broadcast and consumer electronics audio markets.
Their products range from Mixers & Racks to Plugins and Bundles. Pricing vary according to what you are looking to purchase. There is also a page of artist testimonials to give credibility to the quality of the products offered.
Aside from the points mentioned above, what truly made me appreciate Waves was the page within the their website dedicated to video tutorials. It provides a wealth of information to those who are just starting out or maybe perhaps got off to a bad start and need to find their way.
Tight on cash? Waves offers a product called Tracks Live that is available for free download or just $99USD if you are interested in a few bells and whistles like a free multi rack ($600USD value), tech support and bug fixes.
So if you are seeking your start in the music industry, Waves may be a great place for you to begin if you want to take on some of the production as many people opt to create studio's in their own home.
Often times, one of the greatest deterrents of success is a lack of education. I've decided to blog about Waves because they make a genuine effort to provide the products as well as the education that aspiring musicians need.
