| I have spent some time in my firend's studio for stuff for our band and let me tell you, NOTHING exposes areas that need improvement like a recording, although I don't record my practice. It might not be a bad idea though.
Currently, I'm trying to get my stuff together with a home recording setup, and I'm having some configuration difficulties thanks to the OS on my notebook PC. I have an M-Audio Duo preamp USB interface and a couple of inexpensive Marshall condenser mics - I should look into getting a Shure SM57) If I ever get that setup to where it's actually working like I want it to, I'm going to do some home projects to include getting some Music Minus-1 things so that I can mix the two into my own recording of various solo works such as the Goedicke Concert Etude.
Studio work is interesting in that it forces a level of concentration and focus that can carry over into the rest of your playing.
