Common audio mistake

Always recording dry.
Good video and makes sense. Thanks for posting.
Interesting. My guitar tracks are never clean. All the FX are there from the start. Mainly the reverb.

Regarding the rest.... I do record clean BUT... as soon as I'm done with THAT track.... I assign/move it to a buss or pop in the FX I want. So that decision is made early and there is no guessing and procrastination later. I'm mixing and tweeking as I go along. When I finish the last track, the project mixing is 95% complete. It's just a matter of a tiny bit of tweeking and it's finished.

When I know I'm going to have multiple vocal tracks or guitar tracks, I set up a buss with fx for that right up front. So I simply move my clean tracks into that buss and they get the fx treatment I've set up. Simple and fast.
