I'm not really a band. I play and record all my music on my laptop with Adobe Audition. I'm basically just starting too. I guess being a musician and a newbie sound engineer (take that lightly) has quite a learning curve. I usually don't write any music either, just basically take a rhythm line I've come up with and improvise 1 or 2 lead lines. There are mistakes in there as well. I don't usually play more that 1 take per track so its not perfection. Don't let that fool you though, the songs are decent, so have a listen.
