Guys, seriouslly Reaper is banging...side note!
When i record clean, its does fine. Everything cuts through great. Im using a Epiphone Valve Junior modded to my specs. Great amp!
My issue is my amp has a natural overdrive that surely sounds muddy when recorded. Putting my ear to the speaker it sounds fine but when playback, it gets muddy at points that do not cut through the mix at all.
Yes, i know about compression but how would it be in cases dealing with recording? Should i use my Overdrive pedal insteed. Also, what is the best technique used to help Overdrive stand out? Maybe Reaper has a plugin that helps this out.
Im recording with 2 mics. A Shure Beta57 and a Audio Technica 2020 condenser mic. Should i stick with one mic for Overdrives and if so, which one sould i use?
My gear chain in order is my 50's Sqiuer CLassic Vibe Telecaster ( People do not buy these expensive Fender Teles, this guitar speaks against it), Digitech RPX400 with no preamp emulators bypassed..only using specail effects, into my Epiphone Valve Junior head matched with a Jensen C10Q speaker.
Agian im a newbe to this recording only concerning the amp recordings.
