hi i was thinking about started up a LITTLE tiny studio in my (parents) house, trouble is i have only one room sized 10'6 x 11'6 (320cm x 350cm), i am aiming to record guitar and drums live, i will soon use the room to jam with my band. people have said though that i'm going to need two rooms minimum, i realise that with one i'm not going to be able to monitor the sound cause the guitar amps and drums will be so loud. can i not just record clean or with a little guessed EQ, i can get my levels on the meters. I'm using a computer based setup with 10 track soundcard. the room is also made of like plasterboard painted, and i don't think my parents would be too happy me covering it in egg crates/carpet/rugs or whatever.
i would have thought that even if the band were next door then they would be so loud that i'd be able to hear them over my monitors anyway?
by the way i'm not looking at trying to be a big or even small commercial studio, just recording some skint bands and seeing where that takes me, after all , all big things start small. i am 16 and so do not have unlimited money
any help/suggestions would be appriciated
