Techniques for Micing Acoustic Guitar

Forums

Hey. So, I've spent the better part of an hour searching the forums, but I can't seem to find much on acoustic guitars. Am I just being slightly naive in assuming that there are really techniques for Micing acoustic guitars? Or, perhaps it's very simple and not especially noteworthy? Either way, I was just wondering what people thought.

Few thoughts on a preamp for electro-acoustic guitar

Hi there.

I'm currently on a RME HDSP 9632 using only the analog in's and sp/dif out (at the moment).
I record only guitar, both electric and electro-acoustic.

However, I find the input from the El-acoustic to be a tad too low for an effective recording, hence the topic/subject of this post.

Starting Recording Acoustic guitar and vocals

Forums

I have only recorded once before, with my uncle, who has a very nice home studio. I am vaguely familiar with the whole recording process, and I know some of the stuff involved (but not much).

For a school project, I want to analyze the recording process, mostly by recording.

My uncle suggested that I buy a Zoom MRS 8 and a microphone.

How to get acoustic guitars sweet sounding?

Ok. I've been trying to record an acoustic guitar track. My friend and I have a RODE Nt-2a, an AKG c 200B, 2 57's, 2 smason c02s, and a Shure KSM 27. I've tried many diff mic placements with many diff mics. The problem is when we go to record we get terrible string buzzing, the acoustic is a Martin DM Mahogany Dreadnought. Any ideas on how to get the strings to stop buzzing?
