Paul Cooke Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Arghhh!!! just had a great jam session yesterday... came up with several great patterns.. but now cannot for the life of me recall what I was doing... Memo to self, record all future jam sessions... for my benefit and the benefit of the guitarists... we smoked it during our 2 hour long jam in E minor... they played off me, traded lick battles with each other, I played off them, all the time moving on top of the steady rock beat from my Zoom B2.1U... sadly just memory now...

cheddatom Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Arrrggh! That happens so often and is so annoying! I tend to use the voice recorder on my phone if it won't interrupt the flow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Funk Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 This is not the greatest song in the world. This is just a tribute. I've actually done the answerphone thing before (except mobile to landline). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theosd Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Minidisc players are good for recording to, just hook up a mic and put it in the middle of the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Cooke Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 I'm sourcing a USB stereo microphone and using my laptop and Audacity to record sessions in future. Can't justify spending money on a Zoom H4 recorder or a Minidisc player/recorder. USB microphones are cheap nowadays and I've already got a laptop with CD burner on it.

alexclaber Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I always try to take recording gear to gigs and rehearsals - usually just my digital camera which has a fairly decent mic for notepad use. We tend to work on jams and then once we're happy with the new material we record it - this does mean we miss out on the magic of the first jam but it saves trawling through tons of rubbish hay to find the needle of quality. I do regret not recording the first jam we had on a new thang I've written - it was almost as stupidly funky as this live rendition of 'Chicken Grease': [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4XI6LXCsH8"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4XI6LXCsH8[/url] Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
