hey hey! I've been working hard on my sound stuff, and just finished the Sound Reinforcement Handbook. I'm trying to get moved into mixing now, from sitting down at a fully patched board into making a good sound. I'm pretty good at working with voices (I'm a singer) and I know basically how to use the strip EQ to find the best possible voice quality. I've worked with reverb and compressors.
I'm looking for the same sort of information for other instruments. What is the next book I ought to be reading? Are there any really solid websites that have mic techniques for different instruments (yeah yeah, 6", play around) and different mics (basic, common live mics)? Especially the input EQ stuff, I've got a pretty good music ear and can learn it, I just need to get started!
For example, how to get a good warm, punchy acoustic guitar!
Thanks everyone! I love this forum!
