Simmosonic,

For vocal, I use an oldish AT-4033. No bi-directinality there.

You know, I've never crunched the numbers in this way - very enlightening! And yes, the subjective results is what you ...

There is only one guitar on my recordings. Vox is overdubbed. I use X/Y setup exclusively for the guitar. The mics are horizontal (neither pointing up or down) 18" from the guitar with the centre axis ...

Thanks guys for your suggestions!

Yes, the GS3 and the 184s have served me well and enabled me to get a cd out and the next one is nearly done. And I love discussing the nuances of recording acoust ...

Hi Matt,

Thanks for chipping in. I will be changing out the mics in due course, so I guess my original question might be a bit moot - but I just don't know when that will be. (I've discovered I've ...

Mics: Neumann KM-184s (X/Y setup)
Preamps: Allen & Heath GS3 console
Soundcard: RME Multiface ...
