Default Which do you prefer?

3 mics, all more or less in the same spot approximately 28" in front of my guitar. The files are 24 bit 48k mono and unprocessed. I will say that with very minimal EQ I was able to make them all sound extremely similar. Similar enough that any of the three would be acceptable.



The room is reasonably neutral, but ultimately not the same room in which I would be doing any serious recording. It is my mix room and so some of the ambient sound you hear is the fan from the computer.

Then I'll tell you which mics they are.

I forgot to mention, please disregard the playing.... I was paying more attention to other things than the actual playing for obvious reasons, and I was also wearing short sleeves and playing my practice guitar (which has a bigger neck and higher action) so there's a good deal more "extraneous" noise than there would be in a proper recording/performance. Not to mention my being distracted by the recording process....
