Solution - Rather than be driven into the ground and forced to work 18 hour days.. Suggest that you put down 4 basic live tracks tracks but only take 2 or 3 of them on to the 'overdub & mix' stage.

I wouldn´t call this "a trick". I would call this "very responsible".

Most of the bands are very happy after finding out that their engineer (me)
acted the way you described above.

Got me?
