In an interest of changing what is presented to the mics I have been playing with alaska picks for the past few days. Surprisingly they are not a huge adjustment. Ill try to post some clips tonight.

Anton, is that what Steve Baughman has been using recently?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9bm4W_0rxQ I see on most recent video clips that he is using some sort of fingerpicks, and wondered why: the acrylics are common but you don't see many fingerstylists wearing picks. Kym |

Yea Steve is using Alaska picks and some sort of thumb pick. and I think maybe a different pick on his ring finger, Im not sure. I think he has said he tried arylics at one point and didnt like em. When I first met him he was using nails and flesh. He sounds good no matter what.

Here's a much more recent video of Steve (I shot this for him in May of this year):
You can see his fingerpicks pretty clearly in the opening shot. He uses Alaska piks on 2 fingers and a regular plastic thumb pick on the 3rd finger. I know he's explained why, but I don't remember clearly. By the way, in case this sounds ok, you can see the mic placement here pretty clearly

No pickup in this recording, Rick. Steve suggested recording a pickup track in case we needed it. I didn't use it in the mix - just the 2 stereo mics.

Saw the cord, but if you left it out of the recording. You know what I mean about the pick up sound though, especially amoung the tapping crowd.

Great arrangement and playing.
I notice that both mics appear to be pointing at the sound hole. Is that because they are out of the proximity effect because of distance? Kym |

I'd say that's maybe a bit of an optical illusion. The mics are probably around 15-20 inches apart, maybe a foot from the guitar and turned slightly inward. I'd say one is mostly "aimed" at around the neck/body joint, and the other somewhere around the bridge. Pretty much my typical mic placement. You generally don't want to place a mic directly in front of the soundhole but having a mic tending in that general direction from off to the side isn't usually an issue. The directionality of mics isn't that specific - I could probably put them in that same spot and face them directly forward so they don't look like they're pointing at the soundhole without really affecting the sound very much.
I usually try to keep mics out of sight in my own videos, but sometimes they creep in. Here's one of mine with a fairly similar setup - same mics. A little harder to see the mics, but they show up along the bottom now and then BTW, you asked about proximity effect vs soundhole, and that's really 2 different things, unrelated. You get proximity effect from a mic being close to the source, no matter what the source is.

Here is my ADK pair using Alaska picks.
https://soundcloud.com/antonemery/ad...w-alaska-picks I had kind of hoped it would sound alot different than flesh and nails, but comparing the two maybe not so much. With the picks its maybe a less dark on the high end.
