soundproofing your jamspace?
i dont know if i could ever do that, just because a lot of the writing is done more as a collective and theres a lot of "wait, try it this way" and all that kinda nonsense... it kinda seems like itd be a little more difficult to do that via the net...

Yeh it does work to an extent, but only because I tend to write everything for the band. And I tend to write out whole songs before sending them, then we all learn the whole song, get it tight and practice, then change about what we think needs ironing out a bit etc until it's bang on.Pfl?yd wrote:That's pretty much what my band does. We use compositional software and it all ties together with a click track anyway since we do video-syncing as well. We just send each other files with demos and sheet music, if need be, and we convene once a month to go through the set and make sure it sounds okay.weonlywonfiveone wrote:How about you record your riffs into yer pc, or tab them into powertab as best you can, send them to yer bass player and drummer etc, tell them to write stuff to it over a week and then you could arrange a fortnightly session of a few hours to tie it all together at yer mates pad.Kyle wrote:weonlywonfiveone wrote:Oooor, you could do what the majority of normal folk do and pay for a rehearsal room each time you want to practice. Good gear, good setup, good sound, not too expensive (For us works out at £5 each ($10) for 3 hours practice).
as ideal as that sounds, i know of no services like that in my neck of the woods... i have a friend a few towns over who owns a full studio, but he doesnt realy have much equipment, and i dont kow how keen he'd be on us leaving our equipment there...
honestly that might be your best bet.. getting your peeps together and renting a house somewhere half-remote.. then you can just pick a living room and cover up the windows. BAM you got yourself a studio.AoD wrote:dude thats 32 THOUSAND dollars for an 8 by 15 room. i can build a house for that much money.
Well, the nature of the music dictates that to an extent. I can't imagine, with amount of composition involved, that "collective" writing in a room would be anything less than an exercise in banality and futility for us. If anything, someone provides a skeleton of a melody part and everyone layers on top of it and passes it around.Kyle wrote:i dont know if i could ever do that, just because a lot of the writing is done more as a collective and theres a lot of "wait, try it this way" and all that kinda nonsense... it kinda seems like itd be a little more difficult to do that via the net...
