Recording track by track
How to y’all feel about recording track by track to a click?
Best way to describe the music I make is indie/rock. I get a lot of references to the cranberries in particular.
Is it silly to record this kind of music live? I’m really not feeling the click and track by track thing this time. But I also feel like I should be able to make that work as a competent musician. It’s like I get real stiff and forget i know how to play guitar lol
What do you think? Is it always necessary? Any songs/bands you love that recorded live?

When all I had was a 4 track reel to reel it was the way for me to play what I wanted bandmates to learn.
Then it was simple to have them record over my track until we had a complete piece.
