I said I was going to post a cover so here it is. House of the Rising Sun recorded at practice last week.

I recorded this with 2 modded MXL 990s as room mics and the bass and vocals direct. The majority of the sound in this mix is coming from the room mics.
The week before we had the hung them from the ceiling but they picked up way too much ride and crash. This time we mounted the on a mic stand in a stereo pair right in the middle of the room. I'm going to play a little more with placement this week.
I'm just doing this so we can have some tracks to pratice to at home and so I can learn a little about mic placement and about how the jam room sounds.
Anybody have any suggestions for recording Vocals, Drums 2 guitars and a bass with 4 inputs?
I have the 990s available 2 modded MXL 603s a SM57 and I use a Beta58a for vocals. I also have some crappy dynamics lying around and the kick drum is triggered to a DM5 so I could record the kick direct or even just record the kick drum as MIDI and then overdub it. I could also trigger the snare if need be.
Just looking for new things to try.
Anyway hope you enjoy the song.....we had a blast playing it.
