Mastering a song with musical dynamics: ppp to FFF

By dynamics, I mean the type that musicians play, from soft to loud.

So how do I get that rock punch when the track has soft verses and loud choruses? On the chorus it's all good, I just set my compressors, etc., and the meters kick.

But on the verses, it's all below the threshold. Can't lower the threshold on the verses without squashing the loud choruses.

Entry Level Mics for recitals/classical ?

Hi, I am always interested in recording for solo recitals / solo concerts untill recently I have the opportunity.

Usually the recording situation will be a soloist + a accompaniment.( violin + piano, clarinet + piano, french horn + piano,etc...)

As you can see the instruments range is quite large, so i need something that i versatile.

Two mics on guitar -- avoiding phase cancellation but new problem arises

Hi. If I Micing a guitar amp, and I set one mic close and the other back, which creates a tonal blend preferred by the musician, I put a delay on the first mic so that the signals are coming to the board simultaneously to avoid phase issues. I checked the wav files and they are aligned -- as well as using my ears. Sonically, all is well.
