But will there be any detrimental effects to raising the level of the track after I record? Like I said, I'm fine with the level of background noise relative to the guitar but i'm just wondering if it will introduce any other issues.

Here's a snippet of one of the tracks (it's doubled in my DAW with another recording). I left about half a second in at the beginning of near-silence so you can hear my laptop whirring but that's the loudest it gets in terms of background noise. There's no FX on the track either, just the pure...

How quiet is too quiet when recording through an interface into a DAW? I'm recording an acoustic guitar and when I playback I see it's around -30 on the meter (using Reaper). If I crank it up it still sounds fine to my ears as there isn't too much background noise. However, convention seems to...

I've never used an all pass filter but i guess it's worth having a mess around with it. I'd like to change the instrument but i'm going for a stereo sound with almost identical guitar sounds on each side (like example video) so I feel like changing to a steel string guitar (for example) would...

I used the phase inverted button in my DAW, if that's similar to what you mean? It doesn't seem to solve the issue because the waveforms aren't identical, so if it fixes a small section it may not be a fix for the whole passage. This makes me think that I should try different mic placements...

I'm pretty new to recording but I thought I had guitar-related phase issues sussed in my DAW (Reaper) as well as a reasonable idea of how to minimise phase cancellation when setting up two microphones. Now i've found something that has me absolutely stumped: I recorded a track on a classical...
