The audio sounds really nice as well as the song. Is it a cover? Do they have more songs as a band?
You have a very good mic mate, now it's just time to experiment with its position in front of the guitar. There are lots of possibilities and the EQ can vary a lot just moving the mic, as well as the balance between fret noises, pick strumming and guitar sound. My suggestion is that you try to get the sound that you are looking for just with the mic position and then just do small EQ corrections to it (like quitting low frequencies, below 100 hz, quit any mid frequency that you don't like agound 800 hz / 1200 hs) and increase the highs a bit.

Tony Miro could tell you best. Maybe 'personal message' him.
In my experience that 'sound' is gotten by using two condensor mics. (Dynamics will get you close in lieu of) 1) pointed at about the 12th fret and about 20 or 30 cm away. 2) pointed between the sound hole and the lower bout slightly angled towards the sound hole. Again, about 20 to 30 cm away. You're hearing a ton of dry pick sound so you don't want a lot of room sound or effects (verb or delay - a little is cool). Compression - yes. It'll help accentuate the 'click' of the pick on the strings. This post has been edited by klasaine: Dec 8 2013, 05:26 PM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine
