How to mic-up, mix and EQ a guitar amp?

In this new video, you’ll learn about the microphones you can use to record electric guitar amplifiers. You’ll learn about a few of the microphones available, how to position those microphones, and I’ll give you some tips about post-processing for guitar such as EQ, panning, etc. Whatever equipment you’re using, whatever style of music you play, you’ll be able to use these ideas right away.

Thanks to sE Electronics for providing the microphones used in this video. They haven’t paid me for this product spot, but they have given me these microphones.

Other equipment used:

  • The amplifier is a 50w BOSS Katana
  • My recording device is a Tascam X8
  • I’m using Cubase Pro 14 to edit and mix the audio
  • The instruments in the backing back were all from Native Instruments
