The industry as a whole is really suffering right now. There are way to many people trying to do jobs that are disappearing. I understand your frustration. My plan is to hang in there and do as much as I can. Music always seems to suffer the most during economic down turns. At some point people will decide that they want to spend money on nice recordings of good musicians actually playing music. The object is to be in a position to work when the work shows up again. For some of us we just enjoy recording. If I go blow $$$ on gear that I keep for the next 30 years then I can record for 30 years. That brings me great joy. How much is it worth to you to make recordings? Or maybe you don't buy gear but you rent studio time at place that has great gear that you wouldn't be able to afford otherwise. Either way find a way to record if that's what you love to do. Take care --FC
