Hello there, I am new to this forum and new to recording so I am your definition of newb lol.
My first quick question has to do with just plain recording. How do you start? I have about 10 songs I want to lay down, and I want to know how most bands do it. Do you record the drums first, guitar, then bass etc. or what is the first instrument you record? If you record Drums first, how do you play with the song? are you playing with the bands previously recorded scratch track or how do ppl do it?
I have a few songs that require 2 guitar parts but I find it hard to play one into the recorder then play along with the first track cause there is no set tempo. Lol but on the flip-side I don't have a set tempo (I find it weird to play my own stuff with a tempo) for these songs I just wrote them on the acoustic one day and went with it.
I have some decent recording equipment and not too sure how to put it to good use or how to even start with the recording. Can someone please help?
Thanks in advanced
