Recording Acoustic Guitar And Vocals (At The Same Time) With One Microphone

Have you ever tried to record your acoustic guitar and vocals at the same time?

Perhaps you feel you lose some vibe when you overdub the guitar first and then the vocals second and you want to capture a more authentic performance.

The good news is you can totally do it, and you only need one microphone to pull it off!

The key is to understand what type of microphone to use and where to place it.

In this video I show you exactly what gear you need to pull this off and we test a few different microphone placements so you can hear the difference just a few inches can make.

The secret to a balanced guitar and vocal recording with one mic is getting the height and distance right and I’ll show you how to get that optimal placement.
