So, i really need opinions. I have my 57 in front of my rig (ibanez ts9 > 5150ii > mesa oversized straight cab). Which of the sounds in the clip do you guys like more, sound 1 or 2? right now the 57 is right on the grill, my dilemma is I'm wondering if I back it up a half inch if I'll have a bit more controlled low end, which would help it sit in a mix better. But I dont' want to lose the magic of this position and kick myself later if i can't get it back.
Do you think I should keep moving the mic ,or leave it where it is and be happy with this tone? Maybe add some more mics (like a ribbon or condenser)?
p.s. I just have a low pass filter on and a narrow eq at one frequency to get some fizz out.
