Description
This is my first attempt to record my drums and play guitar over it.

Everything sounds dodgy because I recorded it all the same way; with my mic.

I usually plug the guitar straight into the computer and record using a virtual amp(Guitar Rig 3).
This time I plugged the guitar through my amp, and put a mic in front of the amp.

To record the drums I stuck the mic into the bass drum of my little drumkit(it's a little kid's one, still good, made from spare bits I have of my other normal one)

It was single-take for everything (one drum track, three guitar tracks).

Enjoy, meh

The guitar sound is ok
I mean it is sorta unique but the drums really don't come through except for almost some background noise in away.

Hey
cool idea man. I don't know what kind of mic you have, but try putting it just in front of the drum set with the recording volume up a bit. Then when recording guitar put it right in the amps face. (just a suggestion) See how it works. If you put the mic in the bass drum that's all you're going to hear. I don't know if it will help, but hopefully. Again I like what you're goin for.

trust me when i say;
this is an extremely cheap, terrible, simple, and utterly useless microphone.

this is also a terrible, miniature drum-kit.

if/when i can be bothered setting up a laptop and borrowing a mic from my school, i'll do some serious recording in my band room with my real drum-kit(still not so awesome, but better and with a proper snare and working kick (and normal size, of course), the toms are the only real crappiness).

cheers.
