[RWP] Performing actions to a large number of tracks.

[Scott Chesworth]

Wise words! My band aren't anywhere near as successful as I'd like us
to be in terms of actual recognition, but we are proof that it's
possible to record on a bedroom budget, then get commercial airplay
(radio and tv) from those recordings without anybody realising that we
did things any differently on the way in from the artist that was
played before or after. Is it the ideal situation? Course not. Is it
about getting stuff done with the space and gear you've got? You
betcha. Ears, taste and knowledge of the gear and space available to
me are the future so far as I can tell.

All that said, I'm proud of achievements rather than defensive of
methods. I'd still chew my own leg off for the opportunity to work in
one consistent well treated space. The ears, taste and knowledge are
all portable, and there's no denying that it would make things more
efficient.
