Hey all, after listening to Roberto Suarez Soto's track I thought I
should ask for some advice for my latest stuff too! :)

This is the first time i've recorded the drummer or my new bass so i'm
looking for hints. I'd like to get these tracks sounding really good.
At the moment i've just got the our first recordings, no studio magic
applied.

Drums are recorded using two condenser in recorderman config. All
recorded at the same time except the bass as we still don't have a
bassist and so i'm playing guitar and bass. :) Bass is recorded from
the line out of my bass amp into my sound card.

The guitars are a Rickenbacker 620/12 string, 650C and 4004 Laredo
bass. The ric bass is my latest purchase and i'm pretty excited with
it. :)

Any hints? How does it sound? Are the drums recorded ok? What would
you do with compression, reverb, EQ, anything else to these tracks?

Thanks
Loki
