I never did mange to overcome it really. Like you said, I'd get it right lots of times and soon as we went for a take I'd mess up. Fortunately I managed to find a way that helped by emptying my mind ( doesn't take long these days) and just doing it. Seems to work and I found I got a better feel. I hate drop ins and like to start over if I mess up. Luckily my friends know what I am like and as I have now got a multitrack recorder I only have myself to please. little red l.e.d.  fever doesn't have the same ring though.

Just roll the tape. When you screw up, shout the F word a couple of times and start over. Moste of my tracks were done in three takes. I do tend to get nervous when I hit the record button.

It's a weird one alright. It's like someone is watching you. Perhaps someone is. Perhaps it's  :twisted: Him

The best way around that is to keep doing it until it's natural. Recording guitar can be very un-natural, since you have to worry about mic position, your headphone cable hitting the strings, facing the correct way, as well as hitting the record switch, etc etc.

Its good to know the MMs clean up like that. My calibrated set arrived this morning. I'll try to post a clip when I get them installed.

Thanks Maxie Baby :!:

You will love them! Then you will think of another project for another type of pickup :wink:

Look forward to your clips!
