The Gypsy
Here's a song that I learned a while ago for a band audition. The leader sent me a bunch of songs and this was one of them. (I didn't get the gig
 ).. But I did like the song and stripped it down to perform it as solo acoustic. In addition, if you can let me know your thoughts on the recording.. This is using 1 Large Diaphragm mic for recording guitar and vocals same time. The Mic is the Origin by Aston. Recorded with my Spire Studio and App..

Very well done, Jake!
It sounds very good, very live sounding, very clean, and well balanced between guitar and vocal. That's an impressive sounding microphone and your performance is well done! - Glenn

Sounds Really Good, Jake! I've heard good things about the British-made Aston mics, and they appear to be a real good value.

The bad news is you can't EQ or Compress "separately" to carve out some difference between vocal and guitar. And sans any stereo effect to create stereo effect the sound tends be more center focused . About all you can do is compress for more overall presence for both (then go back and make you sure you are still getting the balance between vocal and guitar that you want ) And you can EQ overall to clear low end mudd with a high pass filter try say somewhere between 50 to 90 hz .... and possibly (depending on the recording itself, and what your ears tell you) a slight low mid frequency cut (maybe 2 to 4 db) with a medium Q centered around 500hz

1 Mic makes it a little easier/better! I will make note of your second paragraph and try some of those EQ tweaks.
