Default Re: setting up a littel home studio?

ok thanks

well my method of recording would be this

1. Record a ghost track, to record the drums, this would be the drums completly mic'ed and the bass player playing the track, through his bass amp into the mixer, and then a couple of sets of headphones so both the drummer and bassist can hear what eachother is playing
2. Drum track done. Now mic the bass amp, and have the bassist record the bassm wearing a set of headphones, so he can hear the drum track.
3. Drum track and bass track done. Now mic the guitar amps, and get a few guitar tracks down, with the guitarits wearing headphones so they can hear the drum and bass tracks. If there were two guitarists, then possibly 2/3 guitar tracks, mic'ing different speakers each time, to make the sound more full.
4. Everything except vocals are now done. Record the vocals. With the vocalist wearing headphones, to hear the rest of the song. And then do the backing vocals, and if there are any parts with the vocalist singing twice record them parts
5. Mixing

is that a good plan ?
