[I play in a ban]

- What kind of music are you doing?

- What is your room like...treated?

- What are your source sounds....what kinds of amps/guitars, etc. Are you good at finding appropriate tones?

- I would suggest using drum samples because you are in a bedroom. There are a few options out there, I personally use a program called BFD. It's just going to be hard to get a good drum sound unless your bedroom is a big room with high ceilings.

You could look into drum replacement software like Drumagog if you really wanted to track; I am pretty sure they are actually working on a program to replace your drums with BFD samples which would be really good.

- I would also suggest treating your room with broadband absorbers, realtraps would work or you can make them yourself.

- With that 5k it might be wise to rent gear, hire an engineer, track some of the record with a talented guy. Engineering your own record is something even most professional engineers wouldn't do; you really want to focus on being the musician. However, I am sure it's possible. I hope you find the best road for you and make a great album...good luck!
