Unplugged song issues..

[MetalSir]

hi everybody!
i'm getting mad with a song of mine..
it's just acoustic guitar and voice, but i can't really get "that" unplugged live sound.

i have just one guitar (line+mic, panned LR) and some fx on it (reverb, doubler) and one voice with fx (a bit of riverb and just a doubler).. but all seems so wrong.

really tks a LOT to all you!

can you post clip with it?
I remember one guy there recorded acoustic guitar and vocal, but processed only master bus. I don't think doubler would help to have live sound. Maybe keep everything simpler.

I think part of the "live" unplugged feel is stereo miking, not line Left and mic Right, actually stereo miking, with 2 mics. And a good room.

so i'd try to process only the master bus?

but unfortunately i have only one mic and one line track.. any tip on how to manage this situation?

tks a lot!

Are you recording vocals and guitar at the same time? What mic do you have?

I wouldn't pan them separately, rather get a good tone by mixing both and then try doing some widening with delay around 10/20 ms separating the wet signal and the dry with panning. But it would be better to hear a clip cause I'm just giving general ideas blindly
