RE: [Harp-L] Recording tips

[Tom Ball <havaball@xxxxxxx>]

Paul asked:
I plan to go into the studio this year and record some tracks.  I 
also plan to do some acoustic stuff at home using the Apple (Mac) 
GarageBand software to record it.

If anybody has any tips on mic placements, recording tips, pre / post 
effects, etc, that they could pass onto me I would be grateful.

Hi Paul,

Lots of good advice on recording the harmonica can be found in the 
2002 article "The Taming of the Shrill."  Highly recommended reading 
for any acoustic harp player looking to record.  Here's the link:
