But today producers are increasingly able to manipulate the end sound, and, as a result, they have a much great
Today, the techniques of audio music production have changed so much they are hardly recognizable to those of the recent past. Back when the majority of music was produced by way of acoustic musical instruments, the producers role was simply to record the performance, followed by adjustment of the sound, trying make sure that the resulting production sounded as close to the original as possible. There were huge limits on how much the producer could influence the final outcome of the production.
Now much has changed, and the producer actually can have more control and input into the finished sound.

This allows the producer to introduce many other effects as part of the creative input, as well as additional adding and adjusting later after the initial tracks have been recorded.
