Hi RGOs.

I have to face that my left leg handicap wont get better the more years are passing by. Therefore walking around, when tracking guitars, starts to be a true pain. Doing more sports does not helps any longer. So there must be a diffrent solution for tracking guitars.

Who used the SPL Transducer and did you like the results.
If yes I wont hesitate to buy one because at the moment the TS is cheap in Europe.

Thanks
A.

Do you mean, setting up mics and things make it hard for you to track guitars? Have you thought of simply dedicating a mic to your guitar cabinet and never changing it?

If I have the chance, I always use my cabinet(oversized 2x12 with V30) and mic (Royer R121) with the artist's guitar amp. That way I know the placement and sound for everything. Most of the time I don't even touch the mic position.

Jupp thats what I am talking about.
Its a one room studio, but I have to leave the chair, go to the amps and so on.

I did build myself a power soak and use a DI Box into the board and from there cab IRs.
Its not bad and sounds much like the amp, but the downhill is latency if track count goes up.

Not a bad idea to use a fixed mic.
