It was my first time at the helm for recording sessions, and my first time recording live stuff all on my own in like a decade (used to just do guitar into an audio interface, no mics).
Drummer is a super pro recording homie, and said that there was enough weird stuff going on in the recordings that I got that its best to just do them all over again 
Audio stuff sucks. When I was working on Kor I could not believe how complicated even the most basic type of recordings were. Like I'm not an expert obviously but I'm also not entirely un-tech-savvy, and yet doing audio was particularly frustrating because even parts that felt like they should be straightforward were downright mystifying.
