From Music Think Tank:
There’s a myth being perpetuated these days that recording costs are approaching zero. I think it’s fair to say that most musicians today could make a decent
demo-quality recording themselves for a negligible amount of money. But
to suggest that most artists can create a professional quality,
commercially viable recording at almost no cost is misleading. Making a
great recording that can capture people’s attention in a very
competitive music environment still requires a reasonable investment of
money and time.

Analog for a stereo mix is still my favorite, but
it’s not a use-all cure-all. If you use quality digital gear, it can
sound great. Analog tape does help even out a mix, so long as you don’t
over-do the (elevated) level

I'm always amazed by how many people working in home studios think you
need a $750,000 console, a 48-track digital machine, an arsenal of
$2,000 microphones, and tons of outboard gear to make your tapes sound
"professional." It's just not true.
