Not quite sure if this belongs here or in recording techniques, but any who. How many tracks does it really take to get a true fullness of the guitar parts? I've been messing around a lot and am finding I need 4 tracks to get the fullness that I'm looking for. Comparing them to most professionally done songs. These are unmastered parts of course, only eq'd with no compression.
Is this the normal amount to get that "Big" hard rock sound or am I overdubbing wayyy to much.
I'm only messing with recording guitar right now, would having four tracks for just say rhythm, conflict any of the other tracks; drums, lead guitar, and bass down the road?
I'm recording the tracks mono, and have two panned 70% left and right respectively and then the other two panned 45% left and right.
Recording these all separate by the way, not just copying and pasting.
