I'm planning to do an acoustic-centered project in 2017 so I've been experimenting with the mics, pres and spaces that I have to choose from here at home. It'd be great to have some advice from the crew here before I get going in earnest.
I have mics that sound good alone on the guitar, but I'd like to have stereo tracks for the acoustic on this project. I'm having issues combining two mics. I'll get a take where either mic solo'd sounds pretty good, but the two combined are brighter and thinner-sounding than I'd expect.
I suspected phase, but a straight-up phase reversal plug-in didn't seem to correct the tracks (they went to mono mud). Maybe the mics are less than exactly out of phase. Not sure how to correct that.
Thanks,
Mike
