Hey, I'm in a teen band that takes our music pretty serious (not just your typical teen garage "noise" band). We have a folk/roots/rock sound with drums/bass/guitar/keys/vocals and backup vocals/harmony stuff.
I'm looking into investing in a Digital Multitrack Workstation Recorder. Possibly the Yamaha AW2816. I'm also looking at some of the Korg, Roland, and Akai models in the same price range ($1500-2000).
My question is regarding the actual qualities of the recordings on this machine. Am I going to be getting a product that sounds strickly "Demo Project"?? Or will the recording sound like a CD I buy at the store that was recorded in a studio???
I'd like to get a recording that we can sell...Will it be completely obvious that our recording was done at a Home Studio on one of these machines and not in a real recordingstudio??
Everyone says these machines are great for getting ideas down and pre-production work?? But how do they measure up when you want to record an album on them...
Thanks for the help. This is a great message board and I really appreciate some of the insight I'm learning from reading the threads, not to mention the quick response to questions
