I really think time is the best one for the self imposed part of it. There is a curve to engineering I think. First you know nought and gulp up the very basics and all else is mysterious. Then you get the hang of it...sort of....but quite a bit is still mysterious.....then not much actual method is mysterious anymore, just how the same methods yeild better results for some than others. From then on time is your best friend. At that point you're still likely to want to tweak 'the perfect kick drum' and such for way to long, focusing on the tiny things to the max. Kind of has to work like that though, I think now, as that period gives you minute insight about the tiny level of things which is superbly valuable later. But ultimately you slowly move away into the 'whole view' again....which is uncannily where you started. Only now you have a sort of subconscious arsenal of behaviour to go with it, which kind of engineers for you....while you are finally able to hear 'music' again lol

Phew....lol...rant.

I think your 'problem' will sort itself out on this timeline.......enjoy all the stations
