Yup! I use Audacity and have a pretty good mic.

you’d have to have somebody to do post production because that’s fine for capturing audio but quite terrible for anything else because it’s so limited

Ah, yeah. I'm pretty new to recording stuff, mostly due to my preference of live performance.

well i use logic pro

I use novation launchpad pro… I dunno what mics came with it, I got it as a kit and it's pretty good.

A program is one thing; but you need legit condenser mics to be able to record solid vocals that won’t sound like you don’t know what you’re doing

I mean I have a church choir, and use of their mics… But the only problem is, ahahaha, they don't like me too much, or the thing I'm trying to accomplish. They think since I want a Celtic kinda feel, that automatically makes me a pagan. It's a big oof.

you need an audio interface as well. Getting industry quality audio can’t be accomplished if you don’t have the correct gear

True, but I have all the tools I need. I just don't have enough time to create what's stuck in my head… I have so much on my plate right now, that even writing 100 words a day is a massive struggle… So music is at a standstill.

i see

So there is a dilemma. But this is why I have extended this challenge!

what recording program are you using?
What audio interface do you have? And do you have anyone to do mixing/mastering

I mean it's at my church, but I can use it whenever I want. I don't know what it is, but I can find out. I'll use it Sunday. I'm the sound and music person

usually you’re working with physical mixing boards when it comes to live sound. If there’s any effects being used, there’s a high probability that it has nothing to do with a program, and is just a bunch of outboard gear

True. But sometimes I have to fill in a section with a music program because we legit have no low brass in out band. I don't remember what it's callllllled and it's driving me insane

in most recording programs, stock instruments, especially orchestral instruments are pretty terrible and unrealistic LOL

logic pro’s strings section stock instruments are actually pretty realistic if you know what you’re doing though

I have to agree with you there. The cello sound is pretty good

with strings sections, unlike what some people do, to get it to sound right you can’t play straight 1, 3, 5 triads. It Has to be more open
