    how do YOU mic your acoustic guitar?

    I am going to be recording soon, just like to know what you guys do. I'm thinking I'm going to go with an X-Y pattern with my two Oktava MK012s... about how far should I place them away from the guitar? Should I even do the X-Y pattern? Would one mic suffice? I don't know... there are probably...

    how do you get good depth micing a cabinet?

    I have a cabinet. I want to record both clean guitar and distorted guitar for a rock style sound/genre. I know the cab must be off the ground on a wooden surface. I have that covered.

    My MXL990 is broken...

    If I tap on the outer screen when it's recording, it picks up the tap and the sound of the metal, but if I try to speak through it or record an instrument... it just doesn't work... believe me... I have checked my mic pre's, my cords, my sound card, and everything else... it is definitely my mic...

    can someone post a clip of a good bass sound?

    can anyone post a clip of a good bass sound? bass guitar that is. I can record it properly with DI, but I'm not sure what type of EQ if any I need to use and how much reverb I should add, etc. I know it depends a great deal on the mix, but just a starting point would help.

    I hate drums.

    took me a few days, but I did what you guys said: detuned the kick, added more dampening, and stuck the b1 up pretty close... this is what came of it... thanks for all your help... is there anything else that needs to be done aside from start recording *good* tracks instead of muddling around to...
