LAW asked:
I adore to sing as well as fool around music. we can’t find any one to get in to a rope with. All my friends have been possibly in bands or talentless. So would it be a great thought to jot down a song as well as sing live with taped music. Would this be a great thought as well as is it common? Does it rely upon a music?

The disadvantage of playing with a tape recorder or something like that is that it looks boring - only one person to look at it. You gotta be extra entertaining. Second is, for guitarists especially, is what are you going to do for rhythm? The two options i’ve seen are a drum machine or a laptop. The laptop is more expensive but you can literally record a full CD quality backing track. Unfortunately, the quality of your sound is completely dependent on house speakers… which could be a bad thing. The best way to go would be getting a rack setup, where you can plug your laptop into… but it would mean a mixer or preamp (virtualizer, perhaps), a power amp, and possibly other effects, too (EQ, compressor, vocal processor, etc).
A laptop also has no dynamic “feel”… you can’t give and take with a drum machine. This could mean that your music might feel lifeless and mechanical. Still, a laptop has a lot of options available to it.
If I had the money, that is what I would do…. as it is, i’m doing my best to talk my drummer in the band i’m in into doing a side project with me.
Think…. bribery. =)
