Hoping for some input
So im trying to do recording on my own.
I have an sm57 and condensor. Gave it another whirl to mix the two. No filters or anything. May be out of phase for all i know but its better than what I had been doing.
It might have been ambitious I should probably get one mic right first. But hoping to get
1. Some feedback on good/bad of sound with isolated guitar
In particular I want it a bit bright but worried about gain high end and presence.
2. Ableton lite. Is there something easier or better to help with mixing? Or tips tricks what to reference how to eliminate some of the issues?
3. Mic placement. This is dv77s with a few different amps. Sm57 roughly cone to dust cap ish. Condenser 2 inches max further away and about the same placement.
4. Eq. I could dial back gain. But any other eq tips or anything sounding wonky. And honestly I can't tell if im using pan right in my stuff.

Test 1 has like 3 amps and I think one playthrought with a boost/od. Test 2 3 other amps. Same riff generally. I don't know how to do the whole clean recording reamp thing yet. When I was active we'd have a friend do the sound work I know little and am trying to learn.
Anyways appreciate anyone's feedback.
