You want to check the difference between microphones ?

For Quality Microphones you may check this website below !!!

• Most Microphones used for Guitar Amp Rec is the Shure SM57
• Do not saturate (Hot) your signal while recording instrument, try to record around -18dBFS.
• Guitar Rec Trick 1: Never record any Delay or Reverb from Pre-Fx Guitar !
• Record a second time the same Guitar riff, if possible try to use another guitar, and try another Fx Chain for Eq, Saturation etc ...
• Now days you can record in your DAW your Guitar signal with a DI, this gives you the possibility to ReAmp the sound as you want later.

Tricks

If your recording has a lot P, T, S (sibilance), ask your singer to place himself in a way to sing at 70 or 90 degrees of the microphone.

.:. MS RECORDING .:.

• Encoding : Middle=1/2(Left+Right), Side=1/2(Left-Right)
• Decoding : Left=Middle+Side, Right=Middle-Side

Formula is :

• M = L+R
• S = L-R

This coincident technique employs a bidirectional microphone (with a Figure of 8 polar pattern) facing sideways and a cardioid (generally a variety of cardioid, although Alan Blumlein described the usage of an omnidirectional transducer in his original patent) facing the sound source. The capsules are stacked vertically and brought together as closely as possible, to minimize comb filtering caused by differences in arrival time.

The left and right channels are produced through a simple matrix: Left = Mid + Side, Right = Mid − Side ("minus" means you add the side signal with the polarity reversed). This configuration produces a completely mono-compatible signal and, if the Mid and Side signals are recorded (rather than the matrixed Left and Right), the stereo width (and with that, the perceived distance of the sound source) can be manipulated after the recording has taken place
