The job of the record producer is little known to those outside the recording industry. But most musicians recognize the need to have someone whose ears can be trusted to oversee recording projects. Producers are hired for their musical knowledge, communication skills, organizational ability, and creative judgement. It also helps to have a soothing voice that doesn't grate when requesting "just one more take" (perhaps the 16th) on a vocal track. The producer is responsible for scheduling, hiring musicians and engineers, and helping the artist with musical decisions from instrumentation to arrangements and interpretation. Above all, the producer must listen very carefully to every note, breath and interval that appears on tape.
