so i got my sm57 miced just how i want it to sound (alone).....
it is about 1-2 inches from the cloth....pointed off center to the cone...sounds very crisp and cruntchy - great with 2 tracks panned a bit with this setup.
then, i set up my MXL603s (condensor) to try multiple set-ups.
1 - about 5 feet back..pointed at the amp..away from the amp, high,, low, medium, everything.
2 - i then tried the same positions about 3 feet back
3 - then 2 feet
4 - and lastly pretty close to 1 foot, perhaps a bit more.
no matter where i put it, when i recorded tracks with both mics on - it sounded somewhat FLANGY, or just tons of wierd fuzz in the backround as well....like a big SHHHHHHHHHH over it all. and it was quite wishy washy - hence the flange effect that it sounded like.
however, either mic soloed sounded fine. its a combination of both that did it for me.
any ideas? how do i get this to just be VERY POWERFUL - without the flangy/wishywashy stuff in it? because i definately loved the power that it brought to the guitars.
my room is a big open basement. I have carpent on the floor (extra under the amp/cab). Carpent hung on the walls. About 10 feet back, facing the amp, i have a wall of couch coushin type material.... and thats basically it when it comes to guitar.
i'll take any suggestions on anything that you got, lol.
