Any suggestions on this? I am tracking acoustic guitar with an AT-4047 and an AT2020. Both are cardiod pattern mics and I have even placed them a little above the guitar facing down so as to turn them away from the player's head, hoping they would reject the breath sounds even more but I am still getting a lot of it in the recording.

Hello everyone. First post here and looks like a great community. I am looking for ideas on how to record a solo acoustic guitar and vocal at the same time. I guess my main concern is microphone bleed between the two mics being used. My only condenser mics at the moment are the MXL 990/991 matched set.

Hi,

I just CAN'T get a good acoustic guitar sound.. please help!

My signal chain:

Shure KSM44 mic -->
Universal Audio SOLO/610 preamp -->
Apogee Duet -->
MacBook Pro -->
Logic Pro 9

Hello!

I've been asked by a friend to record him for a college audition. He plays the upright bass, but also needs me to record piano and acoustic guitar.

My question is what microphone would be best for these instruments?

I have a Shure SM57...would that be sufficient? If yes, for which instrument or all of the instruments? If not, what mic would be best?

how could i make my acoustic guitar recording sound fuller. it sounds lifless and dull.

I'm recording a 12-string acoustic guitar into a Shure KSM44 mic and into a Universal Audio SOLO/610 preamp into an Apogee Duet into my MacBook Pro running Logic Pro 8. The recording is very thin/tinny.

So, I've been elected without any say to lead the music for a new Saturday night worship service at my local fellowship, and it looks like I'll at least be starting by myself, maybe with a singer or two if I'm fortunate. Which means... I'll need an acoustic guitar. :? So much for swearing I'd never buy an acoustic guitar when I was an angry teenager.

Ok,

Here is the link to the song,

The vocals in the beginning are only for reference.

I have gotten the lead and vocals sounding great (IMHO) but the rhythm guitar just isn't clear.

I want those clear treble highs. Is there anything I can do EQ wise to bring them out more?
