I posted a similar guestion in the mic forum then got to thinking maybe someone here might have some good ideas too. Anyone got any suggestions for cuttind down on bleed over while recording multiple instruments? Like keeping bass guitar out of the drum track(s) and drums out of the vocal track. I'm recording in a 13X26 ft room, 2 vocals, 2 guitars, bass and drums. I have a second room which can bu used to isolate vocals but mainly work in one room with everyone playing at the same time. By the final mix things mostly blend together fairly well but more seperation would certainly make mixing a lot easier for me. I'm open to any ideas, tips or suggestions about placements, volume levels, EQing or anything which might help. Thanks guys, I value your experience and knowledge of what works and how to get it to work best.
