    Hire an orchestra? I’m sorry, the truest and purest form of music is to spend 2-3 decades mastering an instrument and make it with your own two hands.

      Please do! You make it sound like it’s some unobtainable ideal but people still do this all the time. In fact, conditions are probably ideal at this point in history.

      This is what I’ve done. Not all it’s cracked up to be. 24/96 is still my sweet spot for casual listening (as long as the recording/mastering chain was all at least 96khz… Otherwise, whatever the weakest link in the chain was).

      For having a career, though, 3 decades of piano ain’t a bad way to go.
