Hey guys, with the Amazon Prime Days coming up, I wanted to ask you: Are there any specific gadgets or stuff that might be worth buying regaring composing (esp. film composing)?

Hi Guys, i am very new to this community, also i'am about to finish the trailblazer 1 Course. Very nice Course, super helpful tips and insights! as i want to make Music as a hooby or on the side (no clients). What would you recommend on releasing tracks? Wait until i am more advanced in composition, balancing and arranging (as well a bit Music Theory), or should i share, upload Music to YouTube or other platforms, as soon i finished a track? The other thing is that i'm deaf on the left ear. Do you think it is possibly to get away with mix & Master with Ozone? I'm interested in mixing myself, ist fun but i truely struggle with my Hearing espacially small adjustments. Is it better to take time and try, or forget about mixing and sending it to a mixing engineer? Also is it affordable (mixing engineer) doing it as a Hobby? let me know what you guys think. Thank you! Cheers, Michael

As a father with a full-time day job and a full-time composer and sound designer by night, I know how challenging it can be to balance responsibilities, passions, and personal goals. Life moves fast, and sometimes it feels like there aren’t enough hours in the day. But finding balance is one of the most important parts of building a successful and fulfilling career. Remember, success doesn’t always happen in giant leaps. Sometimes it’s built through small victories, late nights, early mornings, and consistent baby steps forward. Don’t stress too much about tomorrow — focus on what you can accomplish today. Every small step adds up over time. Keep pushing forward, stay patient with yourself, and never lose that creative spark. Stay creative, my friends. Together, we will get there!
