Alright so here it goes...
We play in a small garage.
We've got two guitars, bass, vocals, and a drummer. the drummers kicks are triggered and come out of the same PA's that the vocals come out of. the vocals run through a multi effects unit > small mixer > PA. hes using a Shure PG 48 mic.
We have all 3 amps set up facing the drum kit, with my AKG Perception 420 mic behind the amps recording everything, covered in like 5 t-shirts.
I am using a Lexicon Lambda recording interface, so I have 2 mic inputs, and 2 Line in inputs.
Can I use a 1/4 inch to have mics going into the Line in inputs on my interface?
We are planning on buying a feedback destroyer for the vocals, since we have trouble turning them up loud enough to hear them and not get feedback...will this help? Should we get a better mic for the vocals?
Basically my question is "how can I improve the quality of the recordings?" What would you guys suggest for getting better recording quality considering the set up that I described above? I have been thinking of micing the drums on another track at the same time, any tips on this?
You guys are very knowledgeable and I hope you can help me out!
btw, if you guys would like a sample of what the recording comes out sounding like, I will gladly upload it!
