Particularly if you don't have a soft, crooning voice, I think you can get good performances for the guitar and vocal, even with one mic, when it's placed right in a decent room. Assuming the OP wants to record vocal and guitar in one pass (and doesn't need separation for effects or post-performance editing) wouldn't it useful to assess microphone placement?



Again, apologies, I'm not an expert, and those here that know more are free to adjust....
Lol no soft voice here
I just find when i eq the voice the guitar doesn't sound good.
In part my guitar is loud so it becomes overbearing, im working on a softer touch when i record but on faster songs its hard .
I have a figure mic but i need to setup my Zoom R8 for the phantom power and XLR input, ill work on it tonight
