    My friend told me to make him a song in 6 days for his birthday. I've literally never wrote a song before let alone produced one but I can play uke, bass, and a bit of guitar; I can write poetry; and I come up with random music sometimes in my head; so I guess I have all the elements I just need to put them together. So I'm watching this for help since I have no idea about any of this *[naughty word]* works. Heck.

    Hey Robbie!
    The best way I guess you can describe ratio on a compressor is how much the compressor squashes the sound by. For example, with a 2:1 ratio, when the sound goes 1db over the threshold, it gets reduced by 2db! Also, a cool trick for guitar doubling is using something called the “Haas Effect”, where you set your delay to stereo with a 20 - 30 ms delay time! It widens out the sound and gives it a stereo feel without having to use another track!

    that's such a cool trick to reach those higher range notes. kinda reminds me of how the beatles recorded "strawberry fields forever". the chorus (starting at "going to") was from a different take which was heavier and harder, and also in a slightly higher key. they cut and taped it in between the verses from the other take and slowed the chorus down to match the key, so john lennon's voice shifts into a sort of lower deeper tone in the chorus.
