Fantastic! When Mike said about cuting the unwanted frequencies, it is just to «low» them of a few dbs?

yes correct Dov!

This is awesome and very helpful. I guess that I shouldn't even think recording an acoustic guitar without a mic by using just the guitar pick up and plugging my cable in my audio interface? Your thoughts?

[@davidshanhun]

that is always an option - and especially useful if you have a lot of noise around etc. You can still apply the same principles here to get the best sound from doing that also. But... you will get a much nicer sounding result in most cases using a mic.

[@AKWANMUSIC]

@@davidshanhun thanks. I know you use TC Helicon VoiceLive 3 for live performance. Is it something recommended to record guitar and voice using the VL3X ( because of the nice sounf of a patch) into the daw? Or you recommend to record straight in the DAW and try to recreate the sound using EQ, reverb, delay, etc in the DAW.

[@davidshanhun]

@@AKWANMUSIC I would recommend recording directly into the DAW and then create your sound as you mentioned.
