How to record Acoustic Guitar and Vocals at the same time?

Forums

Hi there!

I'm completely new to recording. I searched for forums on Google about mics and recording and found this site...

I have a Blue Yeti microphone and that's all. I need to be able to record my guitar (unplugged) and vocals at the same time with a decent sound. I tried previously but my guitar was too loud and my vocals were too quiet.

Guitar mixing

I just started mixing this guitar intro for a song I'm working on. I recorded this on my PreSonus Firepod, with a Neumann TLM 103 on the guitar itself, and a Blue Spark mic on the amp in another room. I'm pretty new to mixing and I don't really know where to go from here, I'd love to get some pointers on how to make it sound better, richer, and clearer.

Need Advice on Micing My Acoustic Guitar

Forums

I've asked for advice here before on this but this is slightly different. I have a low end Ibanez acoustic with preamp and have been Micing it with an AT3035 (the done away with version of the 2035 from what I understand). I've been recording straight into my Firestudio with the Ibanez' preamp plus recording a few inches from the 3035 with the mic being in between the 12th fret and sound hole.

just in a hotel with my guitar and i have songs

Ok my question is when i m using the trial version mix -pad by UCH software, and the computer is slow i have about 5 tracks down; drums and guitar it sounds like I'm in a sea shell,is it The sound card? the free version of the software? i know its futile but at the moment it keeps me busy any suggestions?

which tuning would you use for each guitar listed?

i just put this in this forum section because I use a Mbox to Logic. I usually don't mic any amps just use the guitar amp simulators provided tweaked to my liking on the channel.
that being said, here are a few guitars I have and a tuning list I want to use for my recordings. those recordings would be rock to modern metal kinda stuff.
