Here is a question:

[Loren Littlejohn]

Ok here is the senario:

1: You have only 24 hours you can commit to this project a week (period).
2: It takes them 7 hours per song to track (including reamping later)
3: They want to do 9 songs.
4: You have to setup and tear down your stuff in between mixing and tracking each song.

How long would you tell them the project will take to compliete?

Basically if I rush I can mix a song in 3-4 hours (drums take me a long ass time).

 

[KeithRT99]

is that 7 hours tracking them together live?

No, 7 hours doing it like this:

Drums, guitar and vocals (guitar and vox being scratch)

Then: Bass

Then: Guitars (through amp sim and DI)

Then: Vocals.

Later: reamping.
