While they work mostly behind the scenes, music producers are largely responsible for making music appeal to listeners. The music production role on an album can be compared to a movie director. Music producers often actively work with sound engineers to set up microphones and operate the soundboard for the best sound quality. Producers may even help to write the pop song itself, with the goal of making it a hit.
People aspiring to be music producers should become familiar with all the components of music production in a studio setting. To be successful, it helps to have an excellent ear for music and an understanding of how to best blend voices and instruments together to make appealing melodies and harmonies.
