Bro, it's a pc mic lar, if you're gonna mike it that close, I'm afraid it might clip LOL!

on axis: when using a dynamic mic, aim towards the centre of the speaker cone. its a common close miking technique. result is a more edgy sound compared to off axis(aimed further from the centre)

Axis. He's bold as love.

recording at an excessively low volume can avoid the clipping

if someone knocks the room door while recording.... confirm can hear

sry for turning this into a little home cheap mic-ing thread.
try turning ur ad volume louder and mic input lower.?

i turn my volume down =/

ad series fanboys ! dont let this thread die!!!

erm... i post the first clip la....
sorry for the sucky playing lol.... forgive the newb

recorded via a cheapo computer mic.... slightly off axis [lazy to align it perfectly straight lol].... distance about 1 meter... recorded with low volume on the amp.... prevent clipping

anyway.... [note that i dont remember the settings much] cuz its been awhile since i played with the programmed channel

my signal travels from guitar > SD-1 > EQ700 > preamp > speaker

its on UK 80's [JCM800]
preamp gain on full
bass 4-5 oclock
mids 3 oclock
treble slight more than mids

SD-1
Level full
Drive 9-10 oclcok

tho this is not straight from the amp.... just wanna let u guys know its capabilities

i think the on/off axis technique is for close miking techniques.

btw, can hear u strumming the guitar clearly(not from the amp). it means u havent turn the thing on loud enough! haha

sean392,

What program do you use to record??

at night kenot too loud... if put louder it'll start clippin oso =/

Nice tone dude!!! You gotta crank that thing up one day man. Make sure you prepare yourself first or you'ill be blown far away! Hahah... btw, the pings and that Zakk Wylde-style riff kinda took me by surprise hah. Nice playing.

*Off to work on my pings*

the noise is crazy when the thing is @ 75% full power... dare not go pass that.... the feedback will pierce my ear [seriously trebly.... like icepick smashing into ur ear u know.... sakit =/]

nah.... im really still a noob... =/
i bet u can play better

Hah... nah, your playing is pretty good! I can't do pings to save my life! It's just different styles, really.

Hope to hear more clips here. Don't worry, I'ill post mine when I get the DVD.

he's right. i was surprised and kinda like the zakk wylde part

so it means i don't have to post my playing right?

no escaping!

WE DEMAND CLIPS.

damn it, my microphone jack got problems =\

Result of humping it and shoving it up ur @$$ too often.

it's the line in from my soundcard that got problems lol =\
