Shure SM58 & Roland AC-100

I miced up a Roland AC-100 in the Studio and messed with the settings, Since I I lost my SM57, I used the SM58 and it still sounds really great! This is the intro for my bands CD coming out soon! Subscribe please, more studio videos coming soon!

Hey, me again.....

I just watched this video again, and it reminded me of something. For a clean arpeggio intro (and sometimes for reggae style "chuck" upstrokes) I used to take my PG58 (cheaper version of SM58) and face it toward the floor, and tilt my cabinet forward as well, so the speaker was projecting at the floor where the mic was pointed, and I see you have hardwood or pine floor panels, so you should definitely give this a try. Just move the mic 2 feet back and aim it 45 degrees down.

@punkeratheart haha, i have maple floors (had). I moved locations so im stuck with rug unless i actually go out and buy a few pieces of hardwood. it sounds like something i would really wanna try. you have any sound samples?

[punkeratheart]

@MetalObsessed1 I could send you some mp3s of my stuff if you pm me an email account that can take an attachment the size of an mp3 file. One particular song comes to mind where I did this, the intro and "out-tro" were both done this way, volume slowly fading in at the beginning and fading out at the end. I actually used my bass amp for it, a peavey tko 115. It came out pretty good.

@punkeratheart yes.

email me at aurorasmile@live.com

Im really looking forward to hearing the tracks dude.

bass amp? wow.

now im really curious to how your tracks sound.

That's my amp! Pretty slim pickin's on youtube for this great amp! Big enough to not hear the boxiness that you get from smaller amps, notch filter, nice chorus, excellent reverb, and great with archtop jazz.

I guess I should upload a video using my old jazz guitars sometime. I hear a little buzz when I up the bass, like the speaker is buzzing in vibration, (my amp). Don't know if that's age, or a limitation of this amp.

@DaftKiLA500 the grill in some cases doesn't make much difference (Depends on the amp)

I have friends who take take the grill off their amps when they hit the studio. It's all really about experimenting. i dont think a pop filter would make much of a difference.

[DaftKiLA500]

@MetalObsessed1 Could someone just take the grille off and put an external pop filter in front of it??

[MetalObsessed1]

@punkeratheart haha..the china made 57's (the fake ones) lack that smooth mid also. i bought one of some music stand for $40.

[punkeratheart]

@MetalObsessed1 Yeah, there's actually a couple little ecrater sellers in china that take that mic and alter it to look like a 57, and sell it as a fake 57. If they get the cosmetics right, it's a damn convincing counterfeit, just a little crispier in the top end if you know your mics.
