@man13preet That is called a "pop shield" . It stops all the "POPS" from "P's" and "B's" when the singer sings. thats why we only use it on vocals and not guitar

amazing! i can't believe what a great sound you get from the rode nt2. I have the Rode nt2a but i normally double it up with the sm57, i should defiantly run it just by itself to see how it holds out. Just downloaded the ebook too. i look forward to discovering some tips and tricks.

@hjalmarBuoi You are correct about that and you will get a decent result however the sound you get from a condenser mic is much cleaner . dynamic mics tend to sound muffled . they're better for live or very loud recording situations

Great advice! We recorded our guitars this way in all our songs. Check out our songs to hear how the quality and sound turned out! Thanks guys, and thanks for the advice.

@jrafnell it sounded awesome - and i know from experience if you get a crap sound on the way in you cant really "fix" it later - so it amazes me the way he just threw the mic on there and the sound was soo good...

@shaan261 Of course . What ever sound is coming out of the AMP you will be able to record...provided you set your levels right

@Voitcu Oh yes . I can compose Jazz and classical . It all comes down to what the client wants

Sounds great man, definitely a motown jam, reminded me of one of the old songs (My Girl), you guys are doing a great job, accept my massive respect.

Love that Tele.

@ProjectBerklee The Mike goes into the soundcard.

@Speed889 It wasn't easy but I had to hustle to get started

Cool video. You basically have my dream job, sir.

Hey david can you do a studio tour of your studio. What monitors,mics,plugins are you using.

Thanks for the great video! I learned a LOT !

@juanking1234 The mike is connected to a usb soundcard .

David Campos has like an English, Austrian, German and australian accent all rolled into one there lol. Great video. [:

@kyleleetch19 That would be fine . I would try avoid recording the reverb though . Rather record it dry and then add the reverb from your DAW . Just to give you more control

@jrafnell I think that the closer to the amp speaker if it is same at low sound is most proper as lesser muffle takes place and that should be the only mic

yea it sounds motown my friend because it might awell be a cover of 'My Girl'

try both, if i had one to choose, I would go condenser, its up to the person.

Alls i can say is whow foooooook brill guys well done all the best Mac

That was a lot of fun.

@a06u Actually you are right . I redid alot of the song and it sounds very different now :-)

Campos "Fala Portugues"??? awesome Jingle...Rock on .... Tony Silva San Diego

Nice! However, Motown exclusively used the Neumann U 67 for ALL vocals. Guitars went into the Fairchild compressors. (Peluso makes What he calls the P-67.)

Sounds really similar to My Girl, by The Temptations. It was good though. Thanks for the tips.

Like Motown? It's sounds like "My Girl".

thanks for the tips man

Great video David, how did you get into the music industry in the first place, I was wondering because I was hoping to become a producer quite soon?

@jrafnell The way I did it is not the only way to do it. All these different ways create different sounds. It depends on what you are looking for . Your description is not wrong but your idea about it being the only way is incorrect.

love the sound you got for the guitar track, reverb is solid as shown in the next video. I am also tracking in logic and have some more questions in how exactly you got a clean sound. How loud did you have to have the combo amp to get a clean usable tracking? I have an interface, but no preamp, did you use a pre amp or run the recorded signal right into the interface, right into the guitar track on logic?

How did you record the vocals? What was your vocal chain? Mic-->preamp?--->effects?--->interface?

The best you're going to do for under $100 is "tolerable" -- you're not going to get monitor quality. You ought to be able to get a set of Logitech Z313s (not painful) to listen casually *and* get a half-decent set of headphones (like the Grado SR60 or Sennheiser PX100) that, together, will get you where you want to go for around your price (as long as you're aware of their character). You'll eventually want to get better, but that'll get you started.

@67Stu Thanks for that

@hurtchow I am sure you never heard about James Horner... He is the man behind the soundtrack of famous movies like "Star Trek". He invented some riffs then copied it in all of his other soundtracks..and still makes a beautiful piece of art in every movie he works on. Go search for him, please.

Awesome!! ☺️

@n2xroyle FL Studio producer edition and line 6 pod studio ux1 will get you started.

Hey thanx for the videos your awesome!

Nice amp!

It's a pastiche.....very much like 'My Girl' of course, but still very nicely done.

hi sir.......this is a very great and simple technique to record electric guitar.but will it work for recording distorted guitar also?

Can you teach us how to mixing and mastering guitar please.

Hey David, been watching all your videos and read your ebook. cant wait to get started in all this! Two questions, If I recorded heavily distorted metal guitar with reverb and all the effects from my amp would it turn out good or would it sound un pro? also after i record it would i be able to loop in strait into logic? thanks

@Onetruthrgv We actually made alot more changes in the end to be safe :-) lol

@ProjectBerklee most people use an MBox , u can get a good one for few money and can be as good quility as this ... search for MBOX mini , ull get pro tools with it

@DavidCamposComposer ...thanx a lot sir

Thank You

The Temptations, actually -- the Platters were a generation before that (think "Great Pretender" and "Twilight Time").

@hurtchow Thats true !! its the nature of the business. If I could re-invent every style of music that ever existed then they would have to pay me much more money than they could afford. another factor is what we call the "demo-itis" factor. When a client is set on a specific song and cant afford it , then its up to me to give them almost the same thing ...

I don't own an amp and I wanted to record some distorted guitars from a direct in but it sounds too rusty and dim, any tips or tricks on how to make it better?

Why and what did they put before the MIC when recording that man's voice? and why not during guitar recording?

was there any other dynamic plug-ins used or EQ on the guitar track besides reverb? I'd love to hear how to get a great guitar track. Thank you! also, were the drum tracks live recordings as well?

@Protcall and a Sound Card

@whiteeye212 It always sounds much better throught the amp speaker

David, thank you for the info. Do you have any recommendations on portable interfaces?

@DavidCamposComposer I always thought the condenser mic to amp was the best approach for recording guitars......since I don't even have a mic I've been doing it from my amp to a PC line-in, but it sounds extremely terrible. What do you think of that?

can we use acoustic guitar coz we dont have electric one

Do u guys have your full version of this song or a name or a tutorial or a download? please!!!!!!!

Sir, when you recorded the guitar parts,,,Is Mr. Antonio Orrico at the same room with the guitar amp? thank you very much..

and then where does the microphone go into?? does it go straight to the computer's sound card's line in or does it have to go through some mixer or an external soundcard?? please hepl!

So all you need is a mic and software to record?

@DavidCamposComposer why don't you plug the amp directly to the soundcard ?

dude great video, i have a cuestion, did you conect the microphone to the computer by usb or what, can you explain me... thanksssss

is it bad so record your instrument directly to the computer?

what microphone would you recommend for a young aspiring metal player?

working in sandalls. Yeah!

Just curious, can/do you also compose symphonic type movie score music or just typical run-of-the-mill american pop (infant music, smallest history/evolution)?

@DavidCamposComposer hey I love the vid! What is the cost of the AMP course? and when is it supposed to be ready? You seem like you've kinda dropped off the map for a while and I was wondering if that was some indication of time? Anyway thanks for the lessons and God bless!

hola genial tu canal^^ , yo estoy creando un home studio en mi pais Chile y me gustaria saber que clase de microfono me recomiendas que tenga para grabar un amplificador de guitarra?? hace tutoriales en español??? saludos!!!!

@pdgseric You're really a genius! Obviously you don't know the history behind either the Telecaster or the Stratocaster. Leo (that's Fender) intended the Broadcaster/Telecaster/Esquire to be a jazz guitar; the Stratocaster to be a country guitar (Bill Carson). Maybe you never heard of Jimmy Page, Steve Cropper, Pete Townshend, Keith Richards, Syd Barrett, George Harrison, Wilko Johnson, or Mick Green. No country twangers on this list even though some might have been influenced by C & W music.

how do you get into the buisness of "jingles" for adverts?

wow good singer

hey, how about if I recorded guitar and there's a mistempo, how to edit that one? thank you :)

what abaut conect the ampli directly to the console?

hi! i'm a beginner trying to record some tunes with my guitar but don't really know how to do it, what do i need to do it? i suppost i should connect my guitar with pc via an interface then use a program to do my sound and another one to actually record, i'm a little confused

i think u used the song "my girl" by temptations right?

dude what luck, i just downloaded audacity since i was also looking for a free recording software,and then i read your comment, i haven't installed it though could you recomend another software, since you disagree with using audacity pls

what did you recommended record from the amp or from an interface

i need to know how to record a guitar riff and then that it repeats that a can use my own solos

@DavidCamposComposer Awesome [: Again Great video :)

got feedback when i miking up to Amp with condenser...why?

My Girl by Temptations

Totally sounds like my girl.

must i use a mixer ir an audio interface or can i plud directly to my cpu from my effect pedal?

can you use a stealthplug to record?

hey, do you know a good, free recording software? i am in a band i was looking into recording a couple things but i dont have money for that

@MrKellii I'm from South Africa lol !!

@jrafnell that's just one way of recording an amp, there's no 'right' way. You sound like you're just repeating what someone else told you, especially as putting an amp in the corner of a room is probs not a good idea, you get bass build up in room corners, which is not good for guitar. That said, depending on the room, pres, mics etc it could work, there's so many variables for there to be any real 'right' or 'wrong' ways!

your accent is awesome

So when advertisers ask for a "motown style piece" you just give them a recycled temptations riff? I assume this is standard in advertising because I hear facsimile compositions like this all the time.

hey what program do u use?what is your mic running into and what programs...thanks!!

Can't be done, if you want quality results, unless you have a SansAmp or something similar. Get a decent mic and a small combo tube amp, would be my advice.

what song do they play?

Definetly my girl

Wow..!

@DavidCamposComposer Ok thanks

Are you using any usb interface?

@DavidCamposComposer Eg. from any song lyrics?...

Hey David. What software are you using?

The base guide is from The Platters - My girl, too late :(
