Here's the typical Circle of Wings writing/recording process.


Decide on tempo.

Record clean rough gtr with click.

Add rough dirty gtr where applicable.

Add rough bass gtr.

Record midi drums played with V-Drum kit(or sometimes real drums in a local studio).

Edit drums.

Add midi keyboards.

Write arrangement map while rendering to mp3 (where verses start and end, etc).

Send to singer.

Render two more for bass player (full mix with click and my rough bass, full with click and no bass).

Send to bass player.

Bass player returns keeper bass part.

Singer returns rough vocal.

All rough gtr parts are re-recorded.

Solos recorded.

Singer comes into studio for final lead vocal.

Vocals are edited, and vocal harmonies are written.

Singer returns to studio for harmony session.

Final odds and ends are recorded (shakers, bass pedals, sfx, etc).

Additional session players are recorded (violin, oboe, etc).

Song is mixed.
