I don't want you to confuse all these things being done, to me wanting to do them. I would rather track a band that needs no fixes anyday.
a quick anecdote......2 projects ago, I tracked a singer, 10 songs in 3 days.....he killed it. No tuning needed, comping is simple..... a pleasure to work with. Since the drums were programmed, and I tracked all the guitars and bass in 3 days......If only all projects were this easy, I'd be in heaven. |
Yeah, but has a band ever asked you to retrack a part without them knowing? You said you would or have done it. Just to be clear, that is what I'm saying is unethical. While I don't agree with all of the other "fixing" that goes on in the computer recording age, I don't believe that that is unethical. Is it screwing the quality of music on a daily basis? Definitely. That, however, is not what I'm saying is unethical. It's the retracking of a part, unknown to the band, that I think is unethical. Hopefully, I've made this distinction clear now, if it wasn't before.
Anyway, you guys do what you want.
