So recently I've been very inspired by the band Burzum and I've decided to have a go at creating a black metal song of my own. For those of you who don't know, Burzum is a 1 man black metal band. The guy does the vocals, guitar, bass, drums and syncs em all together.
Here's a link for those of you who are interested in hearing some Burzum. (You probably won't like it though.)

Anyways back to my topic, I plan on doing the bass, guitar and vocals myself and using a drum machine for.. the drums.
There are a couple of questions I have though before I really want to dedicate allot of time to this project.
- In terms of recording, I have high-end recording microphones that I can plug into my computer. Would the quality be alright if I plugged those in and recorded in my room or should I bother to get all the equipment together so I can plug directly into my computer and record the bass and guitar that way?
If anyone has any recommendations as to what programs I could use to do the following, please respond.
- A good program to record my vocals and anything else I plan on doing.
- A good program to get all my individual tracks on so that I can mix them together. Things like cut and paste are a must.
- A good program to make drum beats with. (This one probably will go hand and hand with the program above.)

If anyone has any experience in this department, please comment.

You mean like, an adapter?

If you have a mac, there are a whole bunch a programs you can use for recording, and thats probably the best thing for it.
