I have a few buddies that work in separate studios and they all have different ways they prefer to separate the band or keeping them together in the same room for recording. What is your take on it?
it really depends on the kind of music. The second major factor is how well prepared the band is. You can always overdub but the point of capturing a live performance is to get all the nuances. Personally, i find it is less time consuming and more efficient to record musicians separately.
Depends a bit on the type of music, but I tend to prefer albums that does not sound over produced and slick. Recording the band all together in a room probably helps in that regard. I mostly listen to rock/prog-rock/alternativ and those types of music lends it self to being a bit “gritty” and rough around the edges.
