I’m smoking the crack pipe again , maybe it’s the 606 I have to check. I have 102s in my head from somewhere ?

So in reply to myself the mic is a 603s had a while it’s based off the Neumann’s KM 64 . So that door is closed now . lol

Meant to record but my boy did not go to his moms so since I don’t have a sound proof room and my home has a mostly open floor plan recording is out .

Ok so I’m just blabbing and this has been my curse on trying to get time to record . I’m far behind in what I need/ want to do . But I can do some experimenting in mean time .

You also might try some omni mics SDC. Cardioid rolls off the low end. Another reason that most of the guys I know who record their harp guitars dedicate a track to whatever pickup they have for the subs. Just a little can make a difference.

Well I have no pickups just to say again . I’m going to try adding the pencil mic and then a dynamic mic see how goes but my dynamic is a Monoprice Memphis which you can find pics of , It’s that old 50’s/ style which may or may not work in my case . lol [emoji23]

Oh so I’m counting on this coming weekend if my kid doesn’t go to his moms I’m kicking him out ! Lmao 🤣
