Hey all,
Trying to get a decent bass sound (who isn't right?).
Using a SM57 on my bass combo (1X12) the amp is tilted against the wall about 35 degrees and now i have the 57 aimed at the center or a little left of center at about a six degree angle from the floor there's probably a 65 degree angle between grill cloth and the mic. But I'm still not getting a good loud signal even with moderate volumes. Do i just need to crack the amp, or is there a better mic placement?
Mic placement is a dark art and I'm just learning something about it so forgive my ignorance.
Thanks
