An Original Acoustic Blues Song

[Boninsongs]

Hey guys I would like you to judge the quality of my recording. I recorded this song using 2 Beyerdynamic MC 930s into an Apogee Ensmemble. I am new to recording and am wondering if my sound is good enough for making simple performance videos.

Thanks!

I'm only listening on small headphones so you can take what I say re sound balance with a grain of salt, but my tendency would be be to HPF that sucker just a little - low end's perhaps a little overstated, otherwise it sounds fine to me. Easily good enough for what you want to do...

Yeah, seems a little boomy on the bottom E string - not much though.
What mic arrangement did you use on the guitar?

I didn't get any of the boomyness on my setup. Sounded pretty clean. I couldn't tell, but if you want the sound to fatten up, I would spread the mics out a bit. You could try the usual 12th fret and then put the second mic just behind the bridge (on the side), or over the shoulder and towards the sound hole. Just something to give it a bit more personality and thickness.

Just thoughts and suggestions over all sounded good on my setup.

Thanks for the input guys! I use two beyerdynamic mc 930s in xy about 4 inches away from around the 18th fret.
