Hey Mert
What amp and cab are you using?
Oh it was some time ago, was usually for school stuff now at home I use all computer since I'm in an apartment
unless someone bringed a cab., we had a peavey. It wasn't a very good one but using a few mic.s really helped us finding sounds. This is more of a P.A. approach but I'd guess having more mic.s rather than cab.s is ideal for small (or home) studios.
Now they have mic. robots for this job, remote controlled so one can hear the changes in the control room
I usually got help from a friend for this sound search, waving hands while trying to find the best spot
If the cab. isn't very loud, using recording specific headphones (like Sennheiser hd280pro) also works.
Darius, yeah was the same for me but not only cab. pretty much any recording situation. We first learned some "book rules" like ideal distance or angle for mic.ing techniques (a/b, m/s etc.) but after a while once the ear starts to memorize these effects, personal tweaks started. I think experimenting takes a lot of time but is the best way to progress, another positive is one doesn't easily forget such experiences and can apply them wherever (different room, studio...) is needed.
