I am building a small home studio and at this juncture gathering the necessary microphones and would like some advice on what mics others have used in recording ukulele both acoustic and through an amp as I have a pick-up on my tenor. Currently I‘m using an older Shure KSM44 which seems to work although I’ve found I needed the SE Space control filter behind the mic And a shock mount for the Shure mic. I would love to hear other options.
I am reasonably new to recording as I have been in studios as a musician both vocal as well as recording tracks as a guitarist and harmonica player. I am far from one who has is actually doing the recording but trying to learn all I can about midi and DAW.. I am converting a small bedroom into a home studio. I thought this topic might also be helpful to others. The sound samples we hear are only as good as the quality of the recording. Yes headphones in listening can be helpful but I don’t see much here on UU discussing ukulele recording, thought I might start that ball rolling. Recording is certainly more of a technical side but as we grow as players it is something to think about.
