What is your approach to getting BIG rock guitar sounds? Do you favor any particular mics in comination with each other? Thanks! |
It really depends on the way the amp sounds. As a general rule you could usually start with a 57, 421 and something like a Sony C-38. I'll first solo each of the mics to see what they sound like, and then just experiment with different levels of each, in combination with one another. Sometimes a U-47 or 87 a few feet back can add some body. For a solo guitar, adding a condenser mic (with a lot of compression) across the room and facing away from the amp can give some nice size to your sound.
