From my experience, those are more often than not, the same person.
So what does a "Producer" traditionally do would ya say, Grotto? A producer shapes the overall vision and doesnt this include the image of the band, right? Maybe youre saying that Producers shape the "sonic appearance of the artist through the recording". I'm not sure thats where a Producers job ends.
However, you're likely in higher places, Grotto, and maybe I could use a more traditional breakdown on a Producers role. So if ya got a minute, "break-it-down"! ~ *music changes to the "break down", lol.
