personally i like them in the room WITH the speakers. there is just a sensation being live in the room that is impossible to feel in the CR. plus, ME as a guitarist, i dont want anyone breathing down my neck during the take.... its fine if you stop the take and make a comment but i like my space while its rolling. plus, you are likely to get knocked in the head with my guitar if you are too close.
and NEVER let the guitarist sit down for a take when doing rock and roll, for folk/****ry type shit, thats fine... but when the amps turned up they need to be standing up.
i really need to get a PA system to blast at them instead of the can method. like dfegad full on... to 11.
as i was sitting in the rehersal space of my new project, that feeling you get of all the vibrations through your body. it connects your body with the music and vibe. and all those molecules pulsating in the room is what connects the instrument with everything else.
i do takes in the CR and while its nice to do that method especially when recording myself because all the controls are there, the takes i get in the live room has so much more power to them... im even known to record myself and hit record, run into the live room, put on the cans and strap on the guitar REALLY quickly waiting for the count in and then go.
if i have them in the control room, the amp is in the control room too.
