Classical Guitar And Cello Youtube

for recording my classical guitar

I've been recording all kinds of concerts for the last few decades, and one super-reliable one-size-will-fit-almost-all approach for orchestras is two small diaphragm condensers, up over the conductor's head, splayed out sideways. (The ORTF style specifies an angle of 110 degrees, the NOS configuration is 90 degrees. Both have their unique strengths.) These Lewitt LCT 140's are spectacular in this application: over the weekend I recorded a tracker organ (which means mechanically operated- other than the electric blower fan, this is the kind of organ Bach knew and loved) concert in an 1800's church, and the results were amazing. The different registers and voices came through distinctly, and the rumbling of the pedals was earthquake-like. The weekend before that, it was a cello-guitar duo, and the mikes were placed on knee-high stands in front of each player. Again, the capture was thrilling, larger than life- the guitar crisp and punchy, the cello sweetly singing. This was all with the "flat" setting, as opposed to the "high end sparkle accentuation" setting, which seems like a wonderfully slick way to heighten the clarity of some instrument meant to have the central focus. The onboard pad and low cut options are also fabulous to have, when you need to contend with the rigors of the real world, which can get noisy and can be unpredictable at times. For many years I was using Oktava MK-012's for these kinds of duties, and later Avant CK-1's, fantastic mikes indeed, but from now on it'll be the Lewitts. Since these are so lightweight, you'll want special shockmounts (I got the Rycotte Inv-6 softies). And if you still need convincing: check out ANY of the multiple Youtube videos where people put these to the test- music, voice, sound effects, whatever. There is just something about the accuracy, the precision, the truthfulness of these things... you will be a believer, I guarantee.

I am a hobbyist and I Just got into recording higher quality audio a few weeks ago. I use this with an MXL R144 ribbon mic paired with a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 to record stringed instruments and classical guitar and some voice. I saw potential in the R144 to record the cello but I had to crank up the gain all the way up on the 2i2 to get decent recording levels but increased noise levels. I tried moving the mic closer to the cello but the Bass levels were too strong. With the Triton Audio Fethead, I could move the Mic further back into an "optimal" position and lower the gain to about the 10:00 position (like I said, previously, I had to crank it up all the way). Now, this setup records the entire range of cello very well. And for my purposes, I need to do very little sound enhancing. It really is a great product, and I will be ordering another one along with a another R144 to record small string and guitar ensembles.

Perfect fit in my Cordoba classical guitar and very fast delivery. You couldn't for better service.

been using this with a pair of MXL CR21 mics to record classical guitar, paired with these mics it captures the finest of details with crystal clear quality, my only complaint is the lack of stock from being sold out but from my experience only takes around 5 weeks from a backorder which is not bad

I placed it carefully inside my classical guitar where it connects to the pre-amp in addition to the pick-up that it comes with. It works very nicely as it grabs the sound echoed by the guitar itself to complement the sound from the strings on the saddle.

This is my first time to buy a foot stool because I'm not really a classical guitar player. I just need one just to record one of my songs for which I play classical guitar. So I'm not familiar with foot stools, but I think this is very much good enough for my use, so I'm happy with it. And it was a good price for me, too.

I mainly record Pipe Organ and other classical type music from all guitar to a full orchestra if necessary...and even an occasional thunderstorm complete with hail! With the volume set right and you put the headphones on and take them off, the sound is basically identical. They are comfortable, fold up and one serious plus to me is the 3 different types of wire feeds a coiled cord, a long straight cord and a short one when it is used in close quarters. This is an excellent set of headphones for the money, I recommend them pretty highly.

The C411pp produces a reasonably accurate reproduction of the sound of my O-hole mandolin and classical guitar. The signal is strong (I set the guitar below unity), giving me plenty of headroom on my mixer. The pickup goes on easily and comes off easily. I wish the putty was a little less sticky; you have to be careful to get if all off the surface of the instrument.

Works very well on my Cordoba nylon string classical guitar. Firm pressure, grip is effective but doesn't damage anything. Easy to use.
