Hello. I've recently been trying to get a decent recording of my fiddle. You can hear my first attempts here: https://homerecording.com/bbs/general-discussions/mp3-mixing-clinic/why-does-mix-sound-bad-358084/
I've been trying new mic placements all day, and I've found one that really gives me the tone I want--almost. The low notes and double stops sound WONDERFUL. They have depth, clarity, and warmth. However, once I get around A440, everything turns into a screeching mess. I've included a frequency analysis of A440. Is this comb filtering? I'm recording in a room with untreated wood paneled walls, carpet, and drywall ceiling. I've got a wall of superchunk bass traps installed, and the other three corners will get theirs shortly. Does the shrilless have something to do with this? If it does, how can I fix it?
