Just as the title says, what is the best angle and distance?

I've tried quite a few variations, but I still get a way too "fuzzy" sound to make it comfortable.

I'm wondering if using a guitar or bass amp head would make a big difference when recording to my audio interface instead of plugging straight in. Plugging straight in sounds completely whack.

I have an Ampeg 112.

The speaker is shot.

How do I go about replacing it?

What are some good brands of speakers?

I have heard the eminances are good?

Never have done this before, any help is appreciated.

Thank you!

I have a guitar amplifier which I do not use, and I want to convert it into a bass combo amplifier. What if I want to switch out the guitar speaker with a bass speaker? Where would I buy one? Are there any considerations for this type of speaker transfer? If so, where can I purchase a 12 inch bass speaker? Are there any speakers which are better than others?

If you take a DI on your bass track and then proceed to amp that bass track and mix it in with the DI, what if the two tracks are out of phase, but you like the mic positioning on the amped track. I remember hearing about a plugin where you can adjust phase by the degree for a total of 360°, but let's say you don't have this and need an alternate method. What would you do?

My bass player is looking at some boutique amps for medium-sized clubs and outdoor fair/festival stages.

Does anybody out there know anybody personally who is using the Phil Jones Bass amps/cabinets?

I'm trying to get a nice sounding bass sound that emulates the
early Zep stuff. Looks like he used an acoustic 360. Any idea if there is a way to get that sound with some pedals or some of the new type of amps?

Thanks.

just wondering if anyone could give any suggestions on mics to use. I know i can do it direct but I have to record a live band.

I wasn't sure if I should bring my old topic back to the top of this forum, so I'm starting another one...hope that's ok. My budget is around $1000 for a bass amp mic. I'm aiming for a fairly professional sound.
The mic's I'm considering are:
Soundelux iFET7-1,890
Soundelux U195-$1,095.00
Electro-Voice RE20-$429.97
AKG D112-$200

I am doing a song and want to record my bass amp. I have a carvin stack with a 15 and 2-10 inch speakers. I tried to just run the bass direct into my isa 428 with a rnc off of the side chain. I did not like the way it sounded. No punch. I am going to try a D112 on the 15" and sm57 on the 10"s. I don't have a DI box so I want to capture the sound of my rig.
