nothing crucial though, i wanted to direct you to a track i posted in the music section "Aujourd'hui" because I remember people like the guitar sound (did they?).
- it is a nylon guitar recorded with a neumann u47 in a "big" studio (2 meter thick concrete wall and variable absorbtion, but that's not the point).
- the guitar itself is an unbranded nylon guitar that Joe, the sound engineer, bought for 100 francs (15/20 euros) in a "vocabulary missing " (when people sell there stuff in their cellars). it has a lot of low frequencies and great resonance. and it IS considered as a shitty guitar anyway. that's what is cool
- but i think even more important, for Joe, the guitar/mic counted a lot, but for him whatever you use, the sound is in the fingers.
mic position: depends how much bass you need, finger noise etc etc... I wasn't there when they recorded it.
now if someone want to copy this in the appropriate theread and del;ete this post afterwards, you are welcome.
i hope it helps.
