Tracking session 3 – Guitar

Monday marked the session in which we recorded the electric guitar to R.E.M’s Losing My Religion.

We set up the equipment which consisted of the guitar and lead, the amp and three microphones – within the ‘live’ room. An AKG 414 microphone was used to record the sound of the room itself, whilst there were two SM57’s placed in front of the amp – one directly in the centre and one 6 inches to the right of the cone. This combination of microphones and their placement was used to get the best sound possible.

There were about 3/4 takes carried out and two members of the group were controlling Pro Tools and the Ghost Soundcraft respectively. Jack (the guitarist) used the drumming and bass guitar tracks we had recorded in previous weeks to guide him.

I have attached some photos of this session.

  1. Great blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring
    writers? I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
    Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option?
    There are so many choices out there that I’m completely confused ..
    Any suggestions? Bless you!
