These are my new favorite acoustic guitar mics. Very natural sounding and they came in a cedar box for only $560 for 2 of them. My guitar sounds better than ever before. Anyone else tried them? Any tried them on other instruments?

I record a lot of acoustic guitar in my home studio. I currently switch between an AT4040 and an SM57. The 57 sounds, well, like a 57 - a bit chunky for guitar. The AT4040 has a slight kick in the low mids that make my guitar and mandolin sound a bit boxy. I usually have to EQ it out. So, I'm looking for an additional mic for acoustic guitar/mandolin/fiddle micing.

Hi All,

Not sure if this is the right place for this question (it may even belong on a guitar forum who knows?) but here goes!

i am working on my dads acoustic project and as i have only ever messed with hardcore and metal, I'm kinda lost.

his music is very folky to the style of bob dylan or neil young and i am trying to emulate that sound.

Hi, I'm new round here.

Hello there,
I was wondering if anyone can suggest a couple of mics that i can use for recording acoustic guitar and voice at home. Something with good quality but not too expensive. How many do I need? etc.
Thanks

hey all

I'm having problems getting a good tone recording acoustic guitar. i have an ovation custom legend, which i have always hated (biggest waste of $k i have ever spent), and am looking to trade it for something which will get me better results. my gibson jumbo is way too boomy and bassy as well.

First i wanna say i know very little bout recording so be gentle with me...
I recorded guitar with one condenser mic and i was rely happy with it but now i wanna record with 2 mics.

Kick- AKG112D or Shure Beta52 ?
Snare- 2x Shure sm57
Toms- 3x Sennheiser MD 421
Overheads- sE electronic SE1A stereo pair

Thats it. Is there anything u suggest me to change? (sept sE mics coss i like tham).
+ I'm thinking to buy those sE reflection filters for drums... Does anyone have some experiance with tham?

I'm recording for myself, vocals and acoustic guitar. It's slow mellow music, with a theory of a deadman type voice.

Wondering what compressor to start with...

I'm planning to purchase:

api512c preamps
Blue blueberry mic for vocals OR Neumann 49 or 67 .
Blue Woodpecker for my acoustic guitar.

now i have to choose a compressor...
