In today’s world, musicians almost always create their own parts on the recordings on which they play. For example, we do not tell the bass player the exact notes we would like him or her to play. We describe the way we want it to sound and the musicians come up with their parts. So, the most important skills required to record an awesome demo are the ability to express what you want–and the ability to hire the musicians and recording engineers who can deliver the recordings you envision.
