This is an introductory video in an ongoing series about how to record the classical guitar at home in a small studio! In this video I cover the AB Stereo pair technique and its application.

  • Mr. Diebert, where have you gone? I just discovered you and it’s been a year since you’ve posted something new? Great channel! Thanks, Anthony

  • This summer I am going to record an album's worth of Castelnuovo Tedesco pieces (Platero and I). I just bought those Se8 microphones….. Subbed to the channel.

  • Thanks Colin! so, in your DAW – how do you setup the track(s) for AB? Are you assigning each mic L and R as mono and recording on separate tracks?

  • This is great! I'm actually looking to pick up the Se8's because of this video. I'm coming from two 57's. Would you say those mics pick up a decent amount without a signal booster? My 57's just require so much gain

  • Hi Colin. Thanks for a great video! Have you met the problem with getting left hand squeaks on most of the bass changes, even within one position? I am extremely stressed because of it and I need to mind-control each and every bass movement, including not moving a finger after pressing a bass, since the mic takes it all as a squeak. I can also hear these sounds without the mic, but the squeak sound level compared to guitar sound level is significantly lower without the mic. Is this generally a technical problem or a microphone positioning problem?

  • Hey Colin! Great video, I am currently trying to develop my knowledge on recording and you def helped!
    ON THE SIDE NOTE (sorry for this don't take it the wrong way, if it was to me I would hope someone would do this as well!!!)

  • This is awesome! Thank you so much. I'm trying to get some video's up, but I'm not very tech savvy. What audio and video software are you using that allows you to edit the audio post recording?

  • Seems like what you intended is just a perfect fit for each of my questions!

    Btw, did I miss the name of the piece played? I liked it very much.

  • Hi, the most reliable video I've watched so far, though you say it's not about gear, I want to ask if you can get the same results using Rode M5 instead of the se8 and a Scarlett instead of the Clarett, would I get the same quality? Planning to get my stuff for recording. Greetings from Ecuador!

  • 03:02 Oh that's why I've not been able to get a nice warm classical guitar sound… I'm not running the signal through a Marshal stack, a Fender Twin and a classic Vox amp. ???? ???? ????

  • Why classical guitars alone are recorded using SDC microphones? Comparatively the acoustic guitar is recorded using a large and small condenser microphones.

  • Hi Colin! Nice project here! Can I ask you: what exactly do you do with "Pan"? I mean: Do you replace the audio in the stereo image? I cannot here this "Pan" effect to be honest. Thanks, best regards from The Netherlands.

  • Great lesson as always. What music is that? It sounds like a brazilian BaiĂŁo style. Beautiful and the harmony is surprisingly modern. Thanks.
