New Acoustic Demos

[XLR]

Don't think so, but don't know for sure.

Any of the UAD-1 pluggins do the same thing?

 

[XLR]

I don't have the UAD plugs but I believe they have multiband comp.

I am really impressed. Just listening all your tracks and can’t even manage to work properly beside.
All my attention is on your acoustic guitar.
Can you tell me a little bit about your rig and recording/mixing approach.
I am learning how to record and mix acoustic guitar but I never do any progress.

Sikter, thank you for the kind words. The guitar is a Taylor 410 ce mic'ed acoustically with two LDC mics. A Studio Projects B3 about 2 feet from the 12th fret, and an AT3035 about 2 feet from the bridge, but up about 6 inches higher. Recorded through an ART MPA Gold preamp. Compressed through ART VLA compressor. No special effects added after compression.

Thank you. I have that Studio Projects B3 mic my self.
It's just about time to start using it more seriously.
My only acoustic project (" Sea Ducks") was recorded DI.
(Semi acoustic Takamine to M Audio F410).
I tested SP-B3 mic recording my acoustic 6-string Fender and I hope my next project will sound really acoustic. (like yours )

sikter, if you can, get another condenser on the guitar too. Having two mics adds a lot of sonic character to the recording, IMO.

How do you pan those two tracks?

 

[guitar zero]

vocals down the middle. one guitar panned left, the other right, very slightly (single digit panning).
