| Also if you want to record guitar amps just get an iso cab now. The grendel dead room is supposed to be the best one out there right now. If you want decent sounding drums you're going to have to sample. Theres no way around it in that environment. For vocals get some nice dynamics like an sm7b and/or an re20.
More about my dorm escapades:
We lived on an all guys floor, there was an all girls floor below us. The guys didn't really care too much, most of them thought it was cool to have a band on the floor, especially after we stopped sucking (the original band name was "jeff sux", me being jeff). There was this one guy though that played DDR and listened to techno all the time that absolutely hated us. The girls were a different story. The ones we weren't already friends with absolutely hated us. The band stayed together for 2 years after leaving the dorms, we broke up a month ago after 3 of us graduated and moved to different cities. One of the girls who had lived on the floor under us and REALLY hated us was at our last show. This girl probably complained to the RA's about us 20 times or so. She came up to me afterwards and said we were awesome, and THANKED us for playing. I don't think she realized it was the same guys who annoyed the shit out of her for a year. |
