I just got my Korg D12 and I think it's completely awesome. I have a ton to learn and am looking forward to the point when I can think less about operating the machine and more about laying down the tracks.
Anyway, here's my question: how can I use the D12 to make my recordings sound more indie? I like Modest Mouse, old Built to Spill, early Death Cab. I like the sound where it's a little dirty and more carefree. I know that alot of this will come from my playing style, songwriting and spontaneity but I wondering if anyone had any tips on specific ways to help achieve this sound with a digital recorder. I'm not really into super clean perfect sounding production. I want to breathe some life into my tunes!
Thanks for the input...
