Heya, does anyone have any tips for recording bass cabs with a mic? I'll be using a SM57. I recorded our old bassist by DI because that's what he wanted but the results were crap - scratches and scrapes all over the show and sounded weak in general.
I've never recorded bass before with a mic but I'm guessing the mic placement principles are the same as guitar cab micing? The bassist is in B standard tuning (BEAD) and will be using distortion.
Cheers muchly
