Recording reggae/funk/blues/rock type music

[jdp16]

Hey guys...new to ProTools...just bought a 002Rack, Digimax LT, monitor speakers, and a computer. I have access to basically all the cables and mics I need. I was wondering what kind of plugins, outboard effects, etc I would need to effectively record a good demo for my band. We're looking to do a 3 song demo. The music is basically drums, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, and hand percussions and sometimes an electric guitar.

We recorded some tracks on Cool Edit Pro but it sounds horrible. We used drum loops and whatnot and the lead singer basically recorded all tracks on his own since he plays all the instruments. Check it out at http://www.raynco.com/music.htm

So yeah, which basic plugins do you guys think will be sufficient to get a good recording down? Thanks for all your help...you DUC peeps rock!!
