Task 4 Guitar
Acoustic Guitar:
The acoustic guitar was recorded using an AB pair using the SE electronic mics. The left channel was slightly to the left of the hole while the right channel sat facing the 12th fret on the neck of the guitar. The left channel was placed here as the noise from the hole in the body was too boomy, so by having it slightly to the left I eliminated the boominess while still capturing a rich sound. The right channel sat on the 12th fret captured the nice mid-high range of the signal. Capturing only a slight amount on finger rubbing against the strings the overall result was crisp and clear. I found that the slide on the string also had a nice quality which I thought added a slight rawness to the track.
