As said, your song is nice to hear.
Thanks.
How do you mic the guitar on left side?
Funny you mention that. A couple of days ago I mention to Ralf that I
was leaving the whole topic of stereo mixes for later. Until you
mention the left side, I never paid attention to spatial sound
locations. Ever. As you can see in the attached screen shot, the
track with the lead guitar has a 'special spatial' round thing that I do
not know how to get rid of. It was placed there when I tried a plugin
that had 8 outputs. I removed the plugin and this stayed. The green
box shows the control I tried from time to time. I move it and it does
not seem to do anything with the sound eg. I have the impression it
stays right in the middle.
So this topic of stereo location and also of mics is still something I
do not know about.
The microphone is an Audio Technica AT2050 that was simply put in front
of the guitar, as I basically always do, in front of the upper mesh
(*) I have never tried anything else so far. I should also get a
surface pickup one of these days. New strings makes a good
difference. Not too new, but about 1 week old strings.
(*) The Shiraki guitar is a copy of an Alvarez Yairi. This is the
Alvarez Yairi:

So you see what I mean by the upper mesh. The Shiraki is basically the
same, but it has more 'meshes' around the bottom. The mic is oriented
towards the upper part.
