    Thank you so much for this! This was a masterclas because you demonstrated in situ how it works and what are the solutions. Wish every Recording and Mixing channel was this dedicated and easy to follow. I have never recorded a real amp and now I feel more confident just because of this video. Thank you!

      I agree, Euge always provide that no-nonsense approach. And what a sound! 🤩
      If you've never miced as speaker, follow the practical approach and get some quick experience first, because there are things you can only learn by doing.
      For example, record a guitar loop for reference and send it to the amp (use a looper pedal, a reamp box, whatever). Then grab your mic of choice, record it, and with your hand move it around the speaker, dead centre, further away from the edge, from the back, from a distance, at different angles... You also tape yourself on camera while doing this, so you get a visual reference of every sound. Then you listen to it and extract conclusions about those positions you like, those you dislike, how the mic reacts, and so on.
      This way guides like Euge's will become more useful, because you'll be able to use them to tune whatever you already experienced.

    Great video. I always wondered why I saw so many engineers use their ears and kind of guesstimate phase. When you can just do it like this. Nice to know that you tweak it by eye too. I guess many engineers come from pre-DAW, analogue or live sound backgrounds. I know it's often better to use your ears than eyes, but this does seem like one exception where you might want to use both. I've always liked the sound of these VR1 ribbons a lot. Beyer M160s too. The Royer 121's are better for me on clean-ish small combo amps that don't have huge bass, Fender Tweeds, Princeton, Deluxe Reverbs or Vox AC4/15/30 or amps in that lineage.

    I'm am finding your vids to be exceptionally useful, clearly & carefully explained- thankyou!!. Idea for future vid: How loud should you record your guitar cab? Does it make a difference? What does it sound like in a mix at different recorded volume levels? 🤔

    Hey Euge, I would love to see you demo the Friedman IR-J and compare it to your Marshalls, if possible.

    Very cool and helpful video, thanks :)
    Another little tip i heard Nolly talk about. The area where the two glue blobs are on the cone is always darker than the opposite side. Nolly often prefers that spot with the glue blobs for the sm57, since it takes away the harsh top end a bit. Maybe that’s helpful for someone
    Rawk on 🤘🏻

      Glad to hear! Good tip! haven’t paid that much attention to that but it’s probably true ’cos Nolly knows this stuff. I’ve just used my ears and I’ve noticed that sometimes the sides (of the speaker) sounds a bit different.

      He has a interesting video called: dark side of the cone on the ggd channel about the glue blobs.
      it’s always nice when guys like yourself or Nolly share their knowledge. Much appreciated !
      Keep up the great work 🤘🏻

      Yeah it’s a really good mic. Better? I don’t think so. Different? Yes. Does it work great with punchy & direct mics like 57 & 421? Absolutely yes.

    Eiks toi teippi blokkaa tota saundia tosta kabinetista? Vai onks se jotain kangasteippiä? Ite laittaisin, emmätiiä, tussilla merkin mikrofonille. Jos sillä siis edes on väliä.

      Ei kun ei se ei ole kaapin ja mikin välissä. Ja on kangasteippiä, mutta sillä ei ole merkitystä, koska se ei ole mikin ja kaapin välissä.
