because people think they can play with a click but when you open up your pro tools session the engineer shows u its all over the place.
also it takes time to set up the drums for recording. if u get a 'simply also can' type of engineer, then itll be fast cause as long as every track doesnt clip then you an just straight away record. more dedicated ones will try to get the best mic placements that he thinks suits your playing.
but then again it depends what recording ure doing and where you're doing it. of course things i guess would be much faster if you are just recording in one of those smaller studios that targets younger bands, and have everything pre set up already and all they do is just go in and do their tracks.
@bahir, mixing and mastering are 2 completely different things, and thats usually charged seperately. just be careful and not get cheated, as there are some people out there who claims to do mastering but all they do is just normalise your track and put in a compressor/limiter. mastering is quite a specialised field. i think even JD doesnt do mastering.

QUOTE(reza.o @ Apr 28 2009, 05:04 PM) one hour or two...and playing to a click is not the only thing you should concern.you should be carefull with your dynamics control,overtones,and such...but as echo brain mention if you go to studio that target young musician they already have the instrument pre set and it might take as little as 15 minutes for to set up your stuff ie snares,pedal,cymbals,but if you go to a 'pro studio'it might takes more.from my experience in the professional studio where i bring two snares a few cymbals it takes me around forty minutes to set,and take around 30 minutes to lay down the beat for a 45 second jingle.its not about me all over the place but other things such as dynamic,overtone,annoying rattle etc etc...are you going to bring you own stuff?snares,cymbals etc etc?. for a first timer i suggest you prepare(budget) at least 3 hour per song as even if you are a good drummer who never slips a beat in your entire life,once your go to a studio to record for the first time it goin to be different.the feel,the nerve,the click(it sound like a cowbell,and somewhat feel different from most of the metronome that produce beeping or what ever people refer to it.)...everything.but if you succesfully nail the track for a five minutes song in five minutes in one take.....whooooaaaa,RESPECT. *Edited for censorship* pro drummer in the house!

QUOTE(nimrod2 @ Apr 29 2009, 08:12 PM) lol not implying anything la  some ppl call it that. i've heard most of them call it that only. maybe the ppl u hang out / jam / record with call it differently only. no noobness at all  all the while i thought its quite common, since engineers i talk to all refer to as clicks, books/mags/interviews all refer to it as a click track, etc. gapnap noob? where got such thing!!!!!
