Hi,

I did a vid on a very nice recording technique for getting good separation between a vocalists vocals while playing the guitar.

This is a post from my blog about recording the acoustic guitar. I hope people may find it useful and it would be wonderful if you feel you have anything to add! Enjoy.

Good day to you all!

Hi -

Hope I picked the right Forum - I've been playing in a trio for the last couple of years. We are currently working a project, recording our second album. We've always recorded on our own home studio. PC based DAW, Audio Interface, preamps , condensor & dynamic mics.

I have a Breedlove C25/CR and want to record a few songs. Just wondering what a good mic would be to do this.

I've experimented with my Shure 57 and MXL 990 with various mic placements, but can't seem to get a "hot" enough track without distorting. I'm also having problems with keeping a steady volume level with the dynamics of my playing.

I have a basic question about recording acoustic guitar.

I have a Digi 003 Rack, MXL 990 compressor mic, and Shure 57 dynamic mic, and a newly acquired Breedlove C25/CR.

Of course the answer is "it depends" or "whatever sounds good", but I'm wondering what some good starting points are for mic placement and setup.

Hey! We're a reasonably new acoustic band, looking for a bit of feedback on our stuff, and any advice you can give us. We're both new to the music industry and it's a difficult one!

I'm looking at different preamps for recording acoustic guitars. This looks like a serious contender. Has anyone here had the opportunity to try the LaChapell Audio 992EG? Place a couple of Royer ribbons with it and the sound is pristine. I've read this is one kick ass pre. sure looks well made.

What else compares?

Finally time to start getting to know my new studio.

Just started using Youtube to post some acoustic songs on, would love to know what you guys think, and if you happen to use youtube and like my stuff, please subscribe :).

I'm looking for something to record acoustic instruments and probably act as a drum mic occasionally. Acoustic instruments are by far the more important use for me. Guitar and Violin mostly. Thanks!

My other mics are a RODE NT1A and an SM58.
