I have limited amount of space in my bedroom (11x12 which is where all my recording stuff is) to record drums. I know drums should be the first thing I lay down but I haven't figured out an efficient way to do this, but I haven't really tried either. I know a lot of bands all play together while recording drums but the drums are usually isolated else where and they all hear each other over the headphones. I don't have the space for that, so should I have the rhythm guitarist play with the drums and a click track to ensure timing. Then I will have guitar bleed through on the drum tracks so how do I go about recording drums only to prevent bleed through?
Maybe?!?!?!
I should mic the guitar, drums and then have a click track played through the monitors and record it all, then go back and let the drummer listen to only the guitar and click while recording the new isolated drum track, but I was thinkin there might be too much drum bleed through on the guitar track, it might confuse the drummer or mess him up....
I was also thinking about recording the guitar to a click track then have the drummer just listen to that and record but i talked to a few drummers and they don't really like to do it that way...
Anyone got any other methods, ideas or advice?
