    Talking points

    Russ, in your article you talk about the importance of workflow, what inspired that article?

    In his recent article on plugins which he uses on every mix Julian found that none of the plugins he listed were there exclusively because of their sound, it came down to familiarity, ubiquity because they were stock plugins or workflow because they were available as AAX DSP plugins, Does this illustrate this point?

    Examples of gear/plugins and have significantly helped speed up or simplify your workflow?

    A.I and how that will help us as producers and engineers.
