You can't polish a turd, but sometimes you can dress it up like a hot dog and hide it in the corner.
Truthfully, the biggest help for me always has been and still is working with other engineers. I learned
tons of stuff from starting as an assistant engineer and working on real records. It wasn't always about the gear or what settings were used...but working with real guys on real records taught me how to think. Transferring that through your own mind, ears & gear is an entirely different story.
That takes lots of practice...and making some truly horrendous recordings before you start making good ones.
