Egad.. I've done the 'one-man-band' recording thing and it's not a problem (guitar, bass, keyboard, octapad drums). But now I'm trying to do a quick recording on the cheap with 3 other band members.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Hi everyone

I'm trying to record a demo for my electronic post rock band.

The track begins with a simple keyboard loop. Seconds later, the bass and guitars enter (at the same time).

The problem I'm having is trying to make the guitars/bass entrance sound really MASSIVE.

Alright guys ive been reading these forums for maybe 2 yrs to gain advice which i have used. Im not recording from home in a room with the dimensions as follows 12 X 16 X 8 ft now I'm gonna be recording scratch guitar and drums on friday. Im wanting to get the best drum sound possible with this room. Any suggestions?

is it possible anymore to come up with a good band name? i'm pissed as hell. i searched google multiple times for the band name that i've wanted for almost a year. after seeing nothing, i registered a URL, got a hotmail account, and started a myspace page for it.

I have a Zoom MRS-1266 and I was wondering if anyone had any tips for recording a band. We recorded a CD last year that was ok and we really want to step it up this time. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks.

Hey I'm recording a band for the 2st time ever on thursday, i have a PreSonus firepod (8 mic preamps) and an apple laptop with logic express.

What i was wandering is could anyone give me sum advice on Micing up drums, i know guitar amps you place the mic on the edge of the 2 cones but am clueless about drums.

Hi guys,

I’m looking into some different software applications, both offline (windows) and online (web), and I just wanted to know what YOU think are essential tools / features for managing a band, and taking them to the next level? Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Matt

Well, first off, I want thank everybody who participates in this thread (and apologize to those who my newbness annoys).

My band has been playing together for around half a year now (folk, jazz, rock). And it would be great if we could record or sessions. Use these recordings for promotions, selling, blah blah blah.

I would think that there is one or at most two visionaries in any rock band The creative forces that actually write the songs.
How are percentages usually broken down with rock groups?
For instance I have been writing songs for 10 years and am just looking to form my first band, which I plan to sing and already have all parts to all songs on my Cubase with midi instruments.
