I am the drummer (who also wears the 'Recording Engineer' hat) for my three piece hard rock band, and we are getting ready to record some of our songs.
We have had discussions on the best way to record. With the last project we did, we all (drums, bass, guitar) recorded our parts at the same time. I have heard of recording each instrument seperately, i.e. drums first, then bass, then guitar, etc. The guitar player is afraid of losing the "cohesion" that we can get (on a really good take ) when we all play at the same time.
If there truth to this notion? How do you guys record a band - one at a time or all together? Your advice would be greatly appreciated.

PS. I am using a GL824 and inputs aren't a limiting factor in recording us all at the same time.
