Save your best stuff for yourself. We have enough musicians and time to figure it out. As Ben said, though we need to move not like there is a deadline here yeah, I guess like Rob if I record something I don't see myself using I might toss it your way... or, if you really need, I could dub in some guitar solos once you've got some tracks that need them

Exactly.
And so I dont repeat, you see my post in the SR about equipment...
We'll figure this out.

I think us Shredder's have functioning brains

Yeah, anything I do pretty much has to be before 5
And Ive been lucky but if that kid decides to take his set back, I will have to really figure something out
Like...using my High Schools set!

Pekka is as well.

And actually one of my good friends has a set as well. So there's always that.
In fact his is really nice, far superior to the one currently in my garage.

Triceratopsoil wrote: ah cool my drummer is buying a new set, although I doubt you live conveniently close enough to buy his old one :P

Or have the $ I assume
And yeah "my" current one is a bass drum, snare, hi hat, ride, and one crash. One floor tom and double pedal
Minimalism!

My friends is larger and good quality. No cracked cymbals...

Triceratopsoil wrote: eh, size doesn't matter.  For HTcF he uses basically what you have.  Puts some dimes on the crash for sizzle, and some tape on the toms for muffle

Not the size of the vessel, but the motion of the ocean

Rob's piece is really good  Gave me the recording vibes once again, but right now I'm unable to do anything due to someone in the household having flu and no metal resistant ears. I listened to the piece I have and it needs some work in the structure and riffs. But the beginning's ok. I'm tempted to add some drums to make it clearer, but perhaps the fun lies in presenting a weird guitar track and let you figure out the changes.

The recording equipment isn't a big deal.
Better is, better but low-fi is fine!

No worries!

mp3 player mics for the win!

^Those are some good, albeit more traditional lyrics.  I already see a concept for a song.
