Mono cardioid is fine, especially if the room sounds poor, but there's no reason why you couldn't experiment with stereo recording techniques too - just keep plenty of distance between your mic and guitar, both need the space for the sound to develop |
Thanks for the tip. ALso, how about when I want to do rythm guitars that will go into a mix? When you are 1.2m away,, do you usually have that mic eye level, or are you micing lower than that?
