new song - original

[Carl_SWE]

I have two mics(sm57,akg414) on the guitar, One mic(AKG414) on the voice, and a room mic. I will just turn up the guitar mics-

Yup.

personally i think it sounds good with the voice loud... the whole thing has a dylan feel to it...that's definitely a good thing

[mangold]

it is a nice sound, just i think the guitar could be louder, i thought u did it simoultaneously, (which i am impressed by btw) if you played and sung it twice just moving the mic more towards the guitar the second time u could get a more even sound, i thought it was just a quiet clip during the intro and i cranked it, when the vocalls came in it was more than a bit loud kinda like "wonderwall" if you've heard it

Not a solution, the timing will be a bitch to get right.

There are other ways;

1# Sing the song, then playback your singing through a pair of headphones and play the guitarpart. Then mix them together in a program.

2# Do like 1# but guitar first and then sing to it.

3# Get a mixer and two microphones, preferably a real pickup system for the guitar and a regular mic (dynamic and condensator are great, I can hardly hear any difference btw) and then play the song but with both mics recording so you can adjust treble bass etc, seperatly.

4# Find the frequency of the guitar and raise it, works in just about any recording/editing programs.


I suggest number 3.

i meant do it while listening to the first run in headphones. thats what i do and it seems to werk, ur ways are better but they cost more for us poories. I wish i could afford a mixer and 2 mics, that'd be sweeet...
