We did our recordings analog but then dumped them on to the computer
for final mixing. Does that still count?
The tape recorder we used wasn't TOO old. It was an old 8 track
from the 70s I believe. I found it to be a lot of hassle and
worrying about the tape running out during recording. I really know
NOTHING about recoring or recording techniques, so I'm probably not
the best guy to respond to this, however I do find it interesting.
One thing I've found is that a lot of recording engineers like to
keep the amps in seperate rooms, closets, etc. When we did this I
didn't like the sound, so we tried recording everything in one big
room, but still using multiple microphones. I think doing it that
way captures much more of a live sound. Everything sounded stale
when I had my amp in the closet. Again, my knowledge in recording
techinques in minimal.
