Thank you for letting me know about no fx on it - I will make two versions, as he is going to upload it to spotify, youtube, amazon music, etc...

Thank you for that...then how do I hear my student with speakers off?

I give music lessons online and want to upgrade the sound to include an external mic with an interface (Focusrite Scarlett 2i2). Which mic has least feedback? I don't mind dynamic one - how about the Shure 57 or 58? Should I get a shotgun mic instead? Which brand? Thank you in advance for...

It's Oktava SDC MC-012. I will try about 10 inches to 12 for spot cello mic. Thanks a lot everyone who helped me out!

Thank you so much for that Rob! I have 2 good sounding reverb plugins and I will experiment with them - Fabfilter and Lexicon.

Yes I will be recording them at the same time, so bleed will be an issue (I can't fix intonation I guess). This is a much bigger room that's much brighter and livelier than the previous Hymns room. You mentioned adding spot mic for ambience - exactly where can I put the mic to do that? Thank...

I am recording cello and piano in a small-medium size room that is too bright and live acoustically - I can't really treat it except to put a blanket under the piano. What mic setup would you all recommend? I always used X-Y stereo on 2 small diaphragm cardoid mics and a large diaphram cardoid...

I didn't know when to start without knowing about your method, so since guitar was recorded later, I waited until the cello started to start playing. Thanks for that tip - I will definitely use that!

Rob, I did place the spot mic rather close - about 6 inches, together with X-Y stereo configuration above and far away. I will experiment with further placement of spot mics in the future - thank you for that tip! Please keep them coming - I love learning over here!

Thank you so much for that Rich...It helps me a lot to study your mix and try to imitate it in the future! Stay safe now.

You are exactly right - I put mic right in front of the guitar soundhole! You have good ears. I will experiment with different placement options... Thanks for your time!

You have MK-319 too? That's neat. Would you record cello, piano, guitar with bass roll off on the mic? I am gonna try what you did with other similar tracks (EQ). Thanks again for helping me sincerely...

Thanks a lot for your mix, Rob! What did you do to it to make it sound better? I sure would like to know...

You are absolutely right about light monitor system and a compressor misuse - I don't know what I am doing with compressor and I just used one of the setting in Fabfilter (classic setting). I am trying to educate my self in it by reading, but what you all offer here is invaluable - actually...
