simple task, difficult solution? newbie stereo recording question
Hi,
I emphatically respect and appreciate the advice i got here, and the patience of tolerating my simplistic questions. I am definitely a Newbie. I realize this is more an art than a science and there are just too many variables to give a 'best solution' without knowing all the details. But if you care to waste some time, please indulge yourselves. Here's the simple task that i wish to accomplish. I want to record/mix two tracks (both acoustic guitar). The tracks will be recorded separately (myself playing). I have two cortioid condenser mics (MXL603), a Behringer mixer, and cakewalk home studio. Now, assume i have found a good mic placement technique that will give me a decent stereo image of one guitar, and assume the room acoustics are OK (I know that's a big sore point here). How should i record the second guitar and mix them together. Should i change the mic placement slightly. Ah, what is desired you may ask. Well, I would like the final product to sound as if i am sitting in from of two guitarist, maybe the are separated by a few feet, and i am a few feet in front of them, like a triangle not necessarily equilateral. That is, as in most situations, I want it to sound as if I'm sitting there listening to it live, in that same room. |
