James1966 here.... David one of the smartest things you can do is record in the bathroom after everyone is gone, or gone to bed.You should be able to get a good live vocal sound- to act as a guide track before going to the proper studio.Personally, I think Mac members are a thrifty lot, so I tend to wait for ideal conditions.However if your not willing to wait you should read as much about recording as you can, and/or make friends with an engineer at a studio.You may want to trade work for studio time once your songs are not in rough cut form.It pays to rehearse a band till your songs second nature.You can usually get a good take by the 2nd run thru.save money! Don't forget you have to pay for mixdown time unless you mix yourself. Steve Vai once said in seminar that he read a book on acoustics and sound principles and then built his Blue Moon Studio in Hollywood hills.He then experienced happy years of recording life.Nothing beats having control and knowing what your doing.
