I don’t know anything about recording sound for acoustic guitar and vocals. I just ordered a condenser mic, xlr cable, stand and know that I need an interface or mixer, plus some sort of software for my laptop pc.
Am I missing anything to simply record myself singing and playing my guitar, in my living room? Would two mics be necessary for what I’m doing? It comes with a shock mount and is cardioid polar pattern. It looks like about a foot away distance wise picks up the maximum amount of sound from video reviews online. It requires 48 volts of phantom power.
Thanks if you have any suggestions—& I apologize if this is not the type of topic that can be encompassed in the scope of a single post! I’m not the least bit technically savy.
