Hi all - I bought a pair of AT4041 SP studio mic's (pencil mics or very short shot gun style) and I'm not pleased with the sound quality, The playback sound is thin with no life to it. I've tried every mic placement possible, I record straight in with two mics to get an over all natural sound of the guitar, Previously I was using a pair of AT4040 with good results, which I prefer for voice - I went to the 4041 thinking to get a microphone better suited for guitar, I often see this type of microphone used in live performances, could I be missing something here? Is it just me or is the AT4041 microphone better suited for live gigs and not for recording? Is what I'm hearing the differences between a large diaphragm mic and a small one?
Thanks
