Sound Recording difficulties

Featured Replies

I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but here goes:

 

A friend and I recently wrote a few songs and are trying to record them. Acoustic guitar and vocals worked fine, but attempting to use distorted guitar caused problems, namely the recording was overly distorted, and the notes had little if no clarity.

 

[hide=What I've tried]Decreasing distortion

 

Changing amp channels

 

Altering the EQ of my amp

 

Decreasing input volume in recording software

 

Altering distance of mic to amp

 

Plugging amp directly into computer (we have no mixing board yet)

 

Using the noise gate built into my amp[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=Our equipment]Guitar: Laguna LE122 Electric

 

Amp: Line 6 Spider 3 15 watt

 

Not sure on the mic model, but I think it's a dynamic mic, not a compressor

 

Audacity[/hide]
