Ok, I did searches and really did not see what I wanted to see.
Im not exactly new to recording but recently im having problems with this bass players tone. Fender Precision through an Ashdown Amp. Using a AKG kick mic. Pretty dead center and mayber 5" off of the speaker.
When he hits say a High D on the D string the signal is overwhelming. Other odd frequencies jump out also. Big and bloated sounding.
Is there a way to tame the beast here and get a nice even signal regardless of notes played? Should I use a different mic? Ive got a few to choose from beta 57,58 along with regular 57, 58 and Audio Tech ATM25
