I recently bought a Aura Spectrum DI and have been getting great results.
I was tired of setting up a mic every time I wanted to record a scratch acoustic track for an idea I came up. So I had a pickup installed in my Larrivee and saw some reviews for the Aura and thought I'd see how it sounded. So far, I'm quite impressed, better tone than what I was averaging with mic placement. I've decide I may abandon mic'ed acoustic altogether when I'm just recording my guitar.
My dilemma is... Now that I'm recording direct, what are my stereo options in regards to acoustic guitar. I have the tone down, but wondering how can I get the fatness/depth stereo provides when I need it on certain tracks.
I'd be happy with any techniques or ideas that you can throw my way!
Thanks
Ryan
