Ooh, that's a really good point that I would never think of! Me and some friends are doing a little recording this afternoon, I'll be sure to try the string thing. We've been using the 1 kick, 2 overhead ways and it sounds pretty good, we just have some trouble picking up the low toms. We're recording into this sweet digital 12 track deal, so we can do everything live and end up with very good quality for a demo recording. The only problem is our bassist forgot to save one of our best takes!
