Hey everybody,
I'm trying to record some guitar parts here at home by putting an SM57 in front of my guitar amp. While I'm recording, I notice a lot of the acoustic sound of my electric guitar is being picked up (e.g. my amp isn't turned up loud enough).
The simple solution to this problem is just to turn my amplifier up more however we've only just bought a newborn home from the hospital, so I can't be too loud
Do you know of any techniques I could use to isolate the microphone so that I no longer hear the "unplugged" version of my electric guitar? Whilst it's not intended for this purpose, I'm wondering if it could be solved simply using a cheap reflection filter around the mic.
Any help you could provide would be appreciated.
Cheers.
