I used to be a play-it-once-and-that's-it kind of person (well, one take per instrument, since I usually have to record three or more instruments myself), and it'd be quite lo-fi, but I recently decided that I was going to put more effort into what I do - that means doing multiple takes to get it right.
This also seems to coincide with my decision to make the music I write/record more difficult - before it used to be standard major/minor chords on guitar or keyboard, but now I'm writing stuff that relies more on melodies and playing accurately, and I think this would benefit from me putting more effort into recording.
