Tone Starts Before the Mic
This channel is about recording guitar and bass with intention. Electric. Acoustic. Clean. Dirty. DI. Amp. Re-amping. All of it. The core philosophy here is simple: Tone is in the fingers. No amount of money can buy what time and practice will give you. Gear matters. Mic choice matters. Signal chain matters. But if the player doesn’t control dynamics, articulation, and feel, no plugin will fix it. We’ll break down: Electric guitar amp miking strategies Single mic vs multi-mic blends DI + amp combinations Re-amping workflows inside Pro Tools Acoustic guitar mic placement and room interaction Pickup systems vs microphones Bass DI, amp, and blended approaches We’ll also talk about tone at the source: Pickup height String choice and gauge Intonation Right-hand consistency Arrangement decisions You’ll see comparisons between mic placements, speaker positions, DI tones, and hybrid setups. We’ll address phase, low-end control, and how guitars and bass actually sit inside a mix. This channel isn’t about chasing boutique tone. It’s about capturing performance in a way that translates.
