Hi,
I am currently using an Apogee MiC to record mainly vocal/acoustic guitar and some electric guitar as well. To get more serious recordings I am considering stepping up to an Apogee Duet so that I can stereo mic the acoustic guitar. I was going to get a stereo matched set of AKG C214s because I can't afford stereo matched C414s. However, I thought why not get 1 of each? I can afford that and I get two different mics to play with. Will it be a detriment to use two slightly different mics rather than a stereo matched set to record an acoustic guitar in a singer/songwriter context. I record the vocals after I lay down the guitar track. From my online search it seems that stereo matched pairs isn't that crucial for my application.
Thanks for your time! -Gil
