Recording Quality; Tips & Tricks, Recorded initial song, feedback needed Options

[Roadside]

Hey GmC Family,

long time has passed since I was active, but I hope to be back with higher consistency.

Actually we just started a recent local "band" and kicked off a first recording which I would like to share with you.

Recording set-up:

ENGL Screamer Combo via Shure Sm 57 & Steinberg UR 242
Vocals via condensator mic (dont know the article now) and we tried to somehow seal the environment to have a more stable voice with less echo.
Bass n/a
Drums via VST instrument

Cubase

Anyhow, the song is not finished and it was just to record the basic ideas and give it a structure. We will completely rerecord as I have changed to a different amp now. The ENGL was a monster in distortion, but very unflexibel in adjust the distortion. It was just too much, as you will hear on the record.

What I am wondering about is that our vocals sound a trillion times better live than recorded. The voice gets flat and it feels like it has no clear position in the recording.

Before starting the next record I just wanted to get some feedback on what you think of recording quality. Besides of course the song, but this is quite subjective and just an idea yet.
