Self producing for me is a way to keep control over the final results. "Look what they done to my song.. ma" can be reality when you hand over the producers hat to another person who's view is different than yours. Sometimes it will end up great and other times it can be a total waste of money. You'll end up having something that is produced with the producers vision (and you were even in the room while it was going on) and you won't release it... BUT you still paid the producer and the musicians that he hired and studio time. Anyway, it can be big money down the drain.
So... that is why I self produce these days and self record. My whole view of the process is different. AND I don't count my gear purchases in my business model.
