Sometimes the slightly less that total perfection playing gives warmth and makes it sound more real. Also sometimes a similar setup I will eq the guitars slightly differently just to seperate them a fraction more or you can add a tiny amount of delay to one.
There is a full version but I re-did all the drums and guitars on this one. This is the original: ua-cam.com/video/p5ko2-fLVJs/v-deo.htmlsi=D8ESBNYb5rvR6Mj5
Wow Kenny thanks for the true comment about he Acoustic guitar on this. I really feel much better about my Guitar playing after hearing this. I always thought I was just ho hum on it but now I consider my self a EVH. Now I know your video was not on the persons playing but how to mix it.
love the content dude! i am desperate to figure out how to pan acoustic guitar reverbs to the opposite side though! do you already have a video on this? So the left acoustic guitar plays out of the left side but its reverb is sent to the right, and vice versa. would love any help off anybody in the comments as I've been trying to solve this for months! :)
If you acoustic guitar has a pickup, another way to get a wide sound is to record with both mic and pickup at the same time and pan hard left/right. EQ each separately to taste.
That would not sound very natural. If you are going to do it you should check polarity, nudge the mic/pickup to be in phase, and check the mix in mono.
@@kevinlong4657 I've gotten good results with this technique quite a bit and it sounds good. You can get a very wide stereo field. As you noted, delaying the pickup signal a few milliseconds to match the distance from the guitar to the mic takes care of any phase issues. Yes, always a good idea to check it in mono. I don't use it on solo acoustic guitar (2 mics is better), but it works well in a full mix. Depending on the guitar and pickup, your mileage may vary.
Check out the original. It was written in 1969 by Sherman Kelly and recorded by several bands before Toploader. The song has an interesting history and the inspiration was far from the upbeat message and style it produced (You may already know this but others might find it interesting. Thanks).
I have a question Kenny.. i have a half acoustic ovation western guitar... would you say these tehniques would fit even if recorded from the built in mic ?
answered my own question after watching your "Mixing Lead Vocals in REAPER". Great stuff, thanks! By the way, is there a recommended order of mixing that minimizes going back and forth between the tracks?
Too bad that acoustic guitar has the typical annoying buzzy resonance in the 3k range. I had to seek out a guitar that didn't have that issue that that made a huge difference in my recordings.
Timed perfectly. Thank you so much ❤️🌿
This was very helpful. I applied everything you suggested and it worked great.
Perfectly timed. I needed this. Thanks for all you do!
Same, Kenny is I my divine messiah I swear lol
This is amazing!! I only started learning guitar 7 weeks ago and I'm documenting my entire learning journey on here so this was super motivational!
The "Delta Solo" button trick is something new for me today sir. Always learning from you. Safe travels.
I sometimes send my two acoustics to one of the js convolution amp presets to brighten them up or double with a Nashville tuned guitar.
Lovely stuff. If it's well recorded it doesn't need to be complicated. Thanks Kenny
this was so helpful, i always feel like my acoustic recordings sound dirty no matter what i do, this helped so much, thank you mate❤
Thank you Kenny!!
Thanks Kenny! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

qué buen tema
You have to release this song!
Along with god and my parents, you are the person that teached me the most valuable things in my life. :D haha thank you man!
If you want to get rid of some of those finger squeaks, you can use spectral edits. That might be a good topic for a future video.

I actually preferred the mid-range cut. Seems like the bass is carrying the body of the sound so well I like hearing more shimmering acoustic guitar .

Very similar chord structure to Toploader's 'Dancing in the Moonlight'.

@@johnnymorell4974 I didn't know, so thanks for the heads up!
@@paulricketts10 No problem. Take care!
Legend Kenny! Can you do one for mixing vocals too please?
On it's way.

What drum vst are ypu using and what in the bus?
I have a question Kenny.. i have a half acoustic ovation western guitar... would you say these tehniques would fit even if recorded from the built in mic ?
Usually (most often always) acoustic guitar is recorded using an external microphone, the internal pickup and mic usually sound plasticky and thin.
You're getting better on the guitar, kenny...;0)
Only slightly. LOL
👍🎵
is this your song? I love it.
Nope. But thanks.
I presume the vocals have not been worked on in this mix yet? Because the guitars kinda killed it.
