ok, so proceedure, record them all first as a guide for each of them.
then separatley - get drummer to listen to whole guide track in headphones, record his drums first.
then let bass player hear whole guide track /or drumers seperate take? thru headphones and record bass and so on? cheers…
Yeah it’s up to you as the producer how you take it after that, it’s always a good idea to get more than one take, because you sometimes don’t notice some issues till afterwards when the artists have gone home for example.
If you have multiple takes, you can take the best bits of each take and put them together into one awesome end piece.
You especially want multiple takes of the singer!! There is no hard and fast rule for how many takes you should have, but remember after too many takes the artists become fatigued and the recording will become sloppy.
I’d say about 3/4 maximum, but there is no harm doing more if you think they can.
Always make sure the singer has a drink to hand, it gets hot and stuffy in the recording booth, you need his / her vocals top notch.
no hot or cold drinks… should be at room tempreature and no alcohol… not good for vocal chords
