Wanted to get some feedback on this, my first official home-studio recording. I'm applying things I've learned here on HC!
Towit: it's done on a boss br1600, I recorded the drums with "recorderman" overheads plus kick (the snare kinda disappeared in the mix).
mic'd acoustic 12 (and overheads) with a km184, bass went thru a UA 610, sang lead into kms 32 . . did backups into the 184s too, just to see what would happen.
did some eq on the 12-string, which brought out a nice pick-strum tone. I like the overall feel, and I'm happy enough with the results of trying out new e-quip, but I do realize it reeks of 'demo.' So, any ideas would be cool.

also, NEROL . . I really liked the sound on Images, and frankly, the drums didn't bother me at all. my son (13) listens to a lot of metal, and symphonic metal, and I've noticed the drums (especially the kick) are mixed with a lot more "click" than "thwack" than I'm used to. your sound seemed like a good compromise to me.
