Hey guys Im in need of some help.
Im well versed in the art of guitar and guitar related jargon but now ive decided its time to venture into recording.
I have just bought myself a beast of a computer to run what ever I need but im lost as to what I actually need. I figured rather than try to make my own decisions based off other peoples questions I would just ask my own.
Now im not interested in producing release quality music as my band has its producer and has had for years plus the recording industry is equally as flooded as the band scene (more bands than fans, more producers than bands).
Im just interested in producing good demo/preproduction quality music so I can present songs to my band rather than just guitar pro files.
My question is pretty much, WHERE DO I START with what to buy! Im on a budget so the cheapest options would be great. I wouldnt want to record drums, just program them and I have the mic situation sorted as I use to be a vocalist and have 58,57 and condensers.
So what is next? What programs are simple? Should I do the whole modelling thing rather than trying to mic up my amps? Im a noob at all this shit and I really want to start to learn not only so that I can record my own shit, it would be good when im in our producers studio and have a rough idea of whats going on!
Thanks alot people and if you must flame me, FLAME ON.
