Ive been trying to record good acoustic guitars for some time now. I use the MC012 stereo pair mostly. With one mic over the guitarists right shoulder, and another at the same height, placed bout the 8 frety, looking down.

I have been doing some gtr tracks this week and have been using 2 marshalls. One is a 1971 50w Make 2 lead amp. It says jmp on the front. The other is a brand new jcm 2000. The jcm shouldnt even be in the same room as the old one. I cant believe how whimpy the 2000 is next to the 1971. And the gain on the 2000 sounds like cheap dod distortion pedals compared to the 71.

I havent even decided on a mac or pc yet becuse of this.

About 6 years ago as a freelancer, I wanted to announce a deal to all my manager / band and label contacts, that I was available at a cool little studio that I had struck a deal with, for a "special rate" (Studio lock out) + me)..

"OS X 10.1 addresses the hardware, Brown says, "Whereas under OS 9, the apps address the hardware directly. The new audio system is device-class compliant.
