How Do You Record a Worship CD?
Ever since I have been at our church we have had the idea to record a worship CD. We are wanting to do something as a praise team using both original and already recorded worship songs that our congregation has grown to love. So what advice, tips or tricks do you have to share with us? Here are a few of my questions.
1. How do you get the permission to use someone elses songs? What was the process
2. How did you record? Live or Studio? Did you go somewhere or do it at your church?
3. How did you balance recording a CD and your normal responsibilities leading worship at your church?
I know there are many talented worship leaders out there who have gone through this and who can share there insights. Hopefully your comments will not only answer some of our questions but will be helpful for others who are looking into this process too. Thanks in advance.

My band went through this process and I have some insight on the whole process. We raised the money and went to a studio, because we wanted to have it done right. The process was really expensive, so we just went into the studio for one day, and although the recording produced is by far from perfect, we got a pretty good result.

I’d love to talk to you more about this process. Feel free to email me about this and we’ll set up a call!
