Hey everyone. First, i'd like to introduce myself. My names Nick, im 14 and I live in Massachusetts. Im a drummer.
Ok, lets get to buisness. So, im in a band blah blah blah. Now my guitarist has a Tascam dp-01 fx. We've recorded some basic tracks for myspace and stuff, but we are looking to make a cd later this year. Now, the tascam only records 2 tracks at a time. We have the guitar plugged in right to the workstation, that wire goes to an effects pedal, and then back into the guitar. I can hear it because the headphones are plugged into the pedal. Then we only had 1 mic for the drums plugged into the other input on the tascam. Then the bass track is recorded while he listens to the recorded track on the tascam. Ok, now this way is very stressfull and annoying and all that, so we are all young and new in the recording world, so we need some help. We know we need a mixer. Thats all we know. Not sure what mixer, and what features we need on it. We would obviously like to spend the least amount possible, but if you guys could list whatever we need to make an album. Dont leave anything out. EVERYTHING!!!
Thanks so much, and we greatly appriciate your help. We need it very bad.
