Recording Project.

[Brahmb]

Next weekend, I am starting a recording project. I have all the equipment I need, but I'd like some advice on the way to mix and master. This is mostly vocals for a puppet show.

Here goes:

I will have a total of 8 tracks. 7 will be independent character voices. 1 will be a soundtrack.

Only two performers will be doing the recording.

I will need to go from part to part. Should we:

Read one part through in its entirity, then another, and another, etc. and then splice and dice?

Or, should we record and stop as we go along on one track?

In other words, what will be the easiest way to do all the editing? Punch and record, or splice and dice?

Thanks for the input.

Thanks Ed. It's not so much that I'm looking for the right way, as I have not had any experience (you nailed that one). Fortunately, it's a friend and me doing the vocals, and I was trying to learn from other people's experience to see if one way might be easier.

Thanks again Ed. I am working totally on my computer with a Digi001 and Protools LE. I had pretty much decided I would try the approach you suggested because of my setup and the time factors involved, but have had slightly more experience with punching in on keyboard sequencers.
