I'm attempting to record a full-band consisting of A drummer (Bass, Snare, Tom 1, Tom 2, Overhead Left and Overhead Right) (No Floor Tom) two rhythm guitar's (Mic'd small Combo amps) (Marshall AVT 50 and Fender Blues Jr. to be exact) Bass (Mostly will be DI and modeled to desired sound) and Lead Vocal Track (Rotating Male and Female) and Back-Up Vocal (Again, rotating Male and Female).
I have very limited gear. New to recording and just trying to accomplish the best tracks I can. What I have available is as follows.
Mixer :
Carvin MX-1202 (With Phantom Power)
Interface :
DigiDesign 002
with
Line 6 UX2 (Connected via S/PDIF)
Mic's :
1 Sterling Audio ST-51 Condenser Microphone
2 Carvin D42 Dynamic Microphone's
4 Digital Reference DR-ST100 Dynamic Microphone's
2 Digital Reference DR-C100 Condenser Microphone's
1 Digital Reference DR-K100 Dynamic Microphone
2 Peavey PVI-100 Dynamic Microphone's
2 Nady StarPower SP-1 Microphone's
2 Nady DM70 Dynamic Microphone's
The set-up i'm thinking would be best would be to
Mic the drums using
3 Digital Reference DR-ST100 on Tom 1, Tom 2 and the top of the snare.
The DR-K100 on the Bass.
Then 1 DR-C100 as Overhead Left and the Sterling Audio ST-51 as Overhead Right.
Have those 6 mics ran through the Mixer and Direct out into Channels 5-10 on my DigiDesign 002.
Then have the two Combo Amps mic'd with the remaining DR-C100 and a Carvin D42 ran into the Pre's on the DigiDesign 002.
Then, have the bass guitar plugged directly to the Carvin board, Direct out XLR to Channel 2 on the DigiDesign 002.
Then, have the scratch vocal cut with a Peavey PVI-100. Overdub later with the Sterling Audio ST-51.

Line 6 (S/PDIF)
Channel 1 "Scratch Lead Vocal"
Channel 2 "Bass DI"
Channel 3 "Rhythm Guitar 1"
Channel 4 "Rhythm Guitar 2"
Channel 5 "Bass Drum"
Channel 6 "Snare Drum"
Channel 7 Tom 1
Channel 8 Tom 2
Channel 9 (S/PDIF) Overhead Left
Channel 10 (S/PDIF) Overhead Right
Am I doing this the best way? Is there anything I can change that'll help? Budget is pretty much non-existant.
It's just a simple project. Nothing major, so the low-budget gear is acceptable. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
I know I'm new, but that shouldn't stop someone from helping me!
