But I'm kinda fond and also familiar with mixcraft 6 is there any reason that that software will be a problem to use? Thanks for all the help

The above to validate my claim.
As far as mics go the deal I got was this

Granted recording acoustic guitar is the main source however there are so many ways to do so. I could of just bought one, but like the fact I get a stereo bar and two mic cables pretty much free when I went with the bundle.
The ADK A6 (LDC) has come down in price by 50 bucks. It is a workhorse and marvelous on Acoustic guitar and vocals. The only Cheaper Chinese LDC condenser I am aware of that doesn't have that shrill brittle high end. More neutral but one does have to consider how proximity factors in when comparing graphs. Nonetheless I am picking up one soon. Used to be $250.00 and I know places I can get one just under 2 bills with shock mount and mic cable. I believe this mic would cover vocals and guitar with great results. Best bang for buck if you can only buy one mic for both duties. One step removed to make it easy

notice FrontEnd audio for $191.20 and check out the vid. These guys sells mics 3-4 times more expensive than the A6. I am going to purchase one soon
