Making a fake live song/album

[shreddster]

Has anyone here recorded in the studio and made it sound like an actual live recording?

I'm laughing even as I type this. I don't want to do it commercially, just for laughs.

If so, how did you do it?

One idea off the top of my head is to use a shit ton of drum reverb and create a fake room mic from all the instruments..

And (LOL) canned applause... hahahahaha.

Why not? These guys did it.




I drove my chevy to the ocean... but the ocean was dry.

is this really any more disingenuous than all the bands who record a "live" album or dvd only to overdub/sample replace/quantize everything after?

Peter in his think Brooklyn accent: You say we suck? You paid $15, $15 American dollars to get in here and we're gettin' paid. Ain't that shit? Who's the real asshole here?

Elton John did this and it's on his classic albums episode. Very interesting to watch as they did a few odd things to make it seem live. Like having the crowd clapping be off the beat and things like that, pretty cool!
