Dark (New) on Nostr: When I first started recording guitar driven songs, I would just have a click track ...
When I first started recording guitar driven songs, I would just have a click track in my headphones when I played the guitar parts. And since the drum parts weren’t super complicated (just a repeating drum part for the verses, chorus and bridge with a couple of fills), I just used some free drum software for the click track and the whole drum part. Then deleted the click track at the end. It was more precise than I was on drums. I was using such an unsophisticated system I had to play all of the guitar parts in a single continuous take. It was all done with direct line input into a Pentium II PC from a Peavey practice amp with no effects pedals. Just overdrive from the amp. Here’s a sample. It’s pretty repetitive but the solo that starts at 1:58 was pretty decent.
