I'm having a session coming up shortly where the plan is to record vocals and acoustic guitar, some tambourine and background vocals "live" it's a sort of 60's retro songs so any retro tips would be welcome!

Hey all,

I own the Audio-Technica AT4033 & AT3035 condenser mics coupled w/ Aphex 107 mic preamp. I'm trying to capture some good tones when tracking an acoustic guitar. I've experimented and found that if I place the mic between where the body and neck meet, I get some pretty good tones versus getting either a boomy or boxed tone.

Opinionsand info on these mics would be appriciated. thanks.

I posted this on another site, but thought I might get some different feedback/ideas here

So I have two SP B1's. I bought for a specific application and now do not ~really~ need them anymore because I have a C3 (which I am in love with... really.)

What are some other unique applications for my two B1's?

Hi everybody.

I have been recording loads of people at home and learning a lot through this wonderfull site,thanks to you guys...

I noticed that recording a finger-style nylon string guitar performance into an arrangement (comping,soloing) it`s not all that hard (since the guitar player can play of course...),but when it`s a guitar only thing the madness begins...

I am considering biting the bullet and getting a matched pair of KM 184's for when I record acoustic guitar. The price tag is a little high so I'm wondering if anyone has had good results with a cheaper pair of mics.

Just heard the Royer Labs demo CD, and I must say that the Schoeps 221B mic sounded SWEET on classical guitar! I couldn't find it for sale anywhere (I guess cause it's old), but on the Schoeps website directxfiles.com, it said that they have a NEW "improved" version called the M 222 B. Does it really sound as good as the 221?

Hey there! I am new to the boards. Looks like a bunch of great people. Now for my Question.

Hi!
