    Thank you, Colin, always illuminating. I bet you could teach us how to boil an egg and we'd learn something new and helpful.

    This is a great series. Thank you very much. I just started recording for a project and have to learn all this stuff that is absolutely new to me.

    These videos are great Colin. I've been using GB for about eight years and wish I had these when I started. I've learned something in most of these videos or, at minimum, confirmed that my processes are good. Thanks! And for anyone debating whether or not to get the mixing course, yes you should!

    I've never thought it would need two guitar takes (one to each side), to make sound wide. Cool.

      you could also use the stereo spread feature thing under producer effects,
      Alternatively, you could duplicate the track , pan, each side left and right and then ever so slightly dragged one of the tracks so it’s slightly off sync with the other one. but we’re talking like milliseconds otherwise you’re gonna get a delay unless you want a delay effect then do that

    Putting a condenser mic on the lower bout of the acoustic can be a nice full (more warm) tone as well, if you have a more acoustic driven song. Especially if blended with another mix on the 12 fret. I’ll also take a DI signal and blend that in sometimes, can be good for more clarity on single note lines.

    Thank you so much, Colin!
    I like the way you explain the real basics. I learnt not shifting to one of the acoustic guitars in the ‘library selections’ may sound more natural when using a condenser mic.😊

    Ahoy hoy Colin, another great episode.
    ..Really Helpful as all ways, ...tho I tuned in hoping to find out the Best Eq settings for Acoustic Guitar...
    But that probably comes under the mixing process, rather than recording?
    Keep up the Great Work.

    My mic has a 3-contour switch and a 2-switch between 0dB and -15dB, what is best for voice and acoustic guitar?

  • @motarski
    @motarski 11 месяцев назад +1

    why didn't you just copy paste the same strumming pattern off-set one for about 30ms (Haas principle) and pan it left and right?

    sound isolation is your friend i have come to find, esp if youre using your iPhone/Mac mic as in line…
    this is essentially just about as DIY as you can get, and the results speak for themselves… i have made songs with my phone mic that sound better than what my friends are doing with $1000 equipment and ableton,

    Colin have you recorded acoustic guitar using mic and DI together and then mixing the two?

    • @Exspazament
      @Exspazament 2 года назад +3

      I like recording a L/R clean tone electric to blend underneath the acoustic to give it the illusion of low end and fullness while being percussive and bright.

    Am I the only one who can’t play to a metronome? I can play to drums but the metronome throws me off.

    • @tomaltermusic
      @tomaltermusic Год назад +3

      Nope. You're not the only one. I find it useful to record to a basic drummer track or a loop and then delete it after recording if I am not going to use it. That seems to work better for me than a basic metronome click.

    • @Moykel
      @Moykel Год назад +3

      Agree! Playing to perfect 'drums' can feel natural even fun. On the other hand, a clicking metronome can feel a bit bossy and make you extra nervous at a tense time. Like riding down a wooded slope behind Maximus Crowe to whack the Barbarians and he's yelling, "Stay with me!" Oh, sure.

    how do you loop it smoothly

    • @UryneCayne
      @UryneCayne 8 месяцев назад +1

      I use a click and will play a part 6 times, then take the first and last off, loop the center 4. That way you’re not just starting and you’re not anticipating the end. That, with the click, should make it loopable.

    Too bad you cant record yourself playing guitar while camping out at the river or lake. They took all the portable duel cassette recorders with AM FM and Short Wave away. A sad day for real artists. They can take their high tech and digital and shove it.
