Hi,
I just recorded a great Acoustic Guitar track that has string squeaks that I want to try and calm down. Maybe thru a deEsser or EQ..Any helpful suggestions rather than re recording?
Thanks,

had really good resluts tongih wiht a md 421 on a custom cab w/ greenbacks a x73 without eq on, very nice for the heavey stuff
acutally used a old v4 ampeg head with a tone lab vox
finally got some good high gain tone!
that 414 was a bit of a let down, i need to more experience

I've completed most of the studio and we recorded some stuff the other day. Drums came out sounding great. Problem is with the guitars.

We always got good recording out of our guitars when we had everything in the same room. This time, with the guitar in the seperate room, it just sounded like crap.

I recorded a guitar line directly from my acoustic's LR Baggs pickup. In the mix I've applied compression, Amplitube for distortion, and EQ. The song as a whole has not been the most spectacular mix, but it's getting there and I like the way the guitar fits in as it is. Unfortunately, there's this low end "wooshing" that happens every time I fret on for the second and third notes of each bar.

Is in fact possible ;) But not with an acoustic guitar! Just take your electric guitar, place a microphone close in front of your strings, the closer to the point where you hit the strings, the better (I used a SM57 with some pretty convincing results), set your amplifier on a clean sound and start recording!

Hi guys

I want to replace the valves in a Behringer 1952 that I have. I will use one channel to compress bass and the other for guitar.

Any sugestions on what tubes I should be looking at?

Thanks

Shure SM81----orPeluso CEMC6?

Hey,
I just wonder if anybody would be willing to post a link or send me a sample of a recorded guitar track they've done (without any mixing on it.. just the raw sample) so I can see what the first capture sounds like before it's mixed..

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.

Hey, I don't know if this has been asked before, I couldn't find it, so anyway..

I've been recording guitars for a while now, but when it comes to distortion, or overdrived guitars my sound always seems to become a big fuzzy mass of distorted guitars without definition or whatsoever. I doubletrack most of my guitars, and most of the time I record with 2 mics.
