One thing I find difficult contributing here is the fine line between just doing your thing and making it 'right'. As a rule, I go for a take, warts 'n' all, usually with timing errors to boot. I could chop what I do in Reaper to make matters perfect, but I'm too lazy. I prefer the approach of honesty, where possible. What's yours?
In the case of drums, do you quantize? Do you fix timing errors? Do you take and re-take until it's right? Doing acoustic stuff on the drums in my case, it's pretty hard to 'lie', if you see what I mean. Errors are a PITA to sort. So I take the 'sod it' approach.
I don't seek to judge, just what goes into contributor's efforts to make a good jam.
