Re: making a demo of my band, need advice

Re: making a demo of my band, need advice

That's much more like it. You had me worried there. I'm collecting notes. You have each instrument and voice as separate dry tracks, right, and you're effecting and mixing your brains out? Koz trying! LOL i'm getting dizzy scrolling up and down trying to figure ourt what track is what. I wish the "...

Re: making a demo of my band, need advice

we used a metronome to get the time in everybody's head before we started, then I had the lead player do a choke strum to set the time for future tracks. the gentlest way I can say i...t is our drummer has problems.
