Musicmakers' secrets

The collection of COLLABORATION platforms for making music together

As I sit down to write this guide on how to record acoustic guitars, I'm a little overwhelmed. Since not only is the acoustic guitar one of the more challenging instruments to record really well, it's also a different instrument to different people and one with a changing role in each song.

As with anything else in the audio world, there are very definite rules about which microphones you should use in different circumstances. There are particular mics regarded as the best. Like rules everywhere, the definitive ones are just easy to break, and "best of" lists that don't consider budget simply aren't practical.
