I just got a braend new taylor 610-ce acoustic and it is amazing. Compleetly perfect. Only thing is, I want to keep it that way.

I'm a woodworker and what could be a better project than for me to build my own "display box" so I could have controled humidity.
I would have no problem building the box. My only problem is I dont know

I am completely new to midi and all this. I currently run a pc with Sonar 4...soon to be logic pro on a macbook pro.

We have a tiny room with our drums. We have a lot of problems getting a good sound. I've thought about getting something like Toontracks DFH and a triggering kit. I'm not sure how that will even work.

I just got the go-ahead to record a live show. This is a very small venue (30 is crowded) and the show is totally acoustic. The woman I'm recording has a strong, soulful voice, plays guitar, a bad-ass blues harp, and sometimes just a tambourine.

Hi Guys 8-)

any advice for an entry level mic to rec a really stunning (handcrafted Guild...) acoustic guitar?
I wish I could preserve most of it's flavour without selling my soul to Uncle Lou...

thanks :)

Okay i have been trying to get a nice full acoustic sound and was wondering what most pro studios use to mic acoustics. I was just eating dinner and heard that green day song "time of your life" or whatever its titled. I think the acoustic on that track sounds great. Any idea what they would have used? Right now the 3 mics I have to use are:

I just bought a matched pair of DPA 4006-TLs with the acoustic pressure equalizers and grids (thanks to Mike at Vintage King Audio). My initial intention is to record a hand-made German 7'2" grand piano in a small live room. I just received the set and havn't started experimenting (will start this weekend).

Which do you prefer when recording drums. Recording the raw Acoustic Drums, eq and compress, and know it's all you.

would love to know people's tips for mastering live acoustic recordings. i run acoustic gigs in london, record people's sets then mix them either on the Yamaha AW16G i record them on, or take the recordings into Cubase and Audition to have more of a play with.

I'll start by saying I have no prior recording experience of any instrument. I've read up on recording an acoustic guitar and have come across a variety of different views. I'm not fussy about sound quality (and I have no right to be with my budget :D); all I want is an end-product that the majority of people would have no problem listening to in terms of sound quality.
