I am going to be recording several duets on classical guitar. Typically, I use 2 mics in an X-Y stereo configuration to record solo pieces. Incidentally, I record from a distance of 3 to 3-1/2' if that has a bearing.
I should add that I will be playing both sides of the duet on different classical guitars.
Here's my question: Am I better off recording each track of the duet in mono os stereo? Obviously, I can pan either one and obtain decent results after mixing but will I get a better sound by mixing the two stereo channels?
Has anybody done this or am I asking yet another terribly naive question? Thanks for the help.
Regards, Steve
