I was curious how a smaller guitar like the Taylor GS-mini Koa would sound recorded through a mic instead of using the built-in pickup system. I find it very difficult to get the right settings in Studio One 6 to make it sound right to my ears. This time I didn’t do a lot of… [Read More]

In an effort to help the wife develop products for her business, I am trying to pick up a new skill: airbrushing.
