So. I've got a no-name, nylon string, classical style acoustic guitar, a Shure PG58 dynamic mic, an AKG D2300S dynamic mic and an Acer Aspire 3000 laptop with Adobe Audition 1.5 recording software installed. As far as I know, all the equipment I'm using is fully functional.
My problem is this:
At the moment, I'm trying to record solo acoustic guitar tracks. No vocals, no effects, just strumming chords.
Whenever I record anything I get massive amounts of white noise/humming in the background and weird "gloopy" sounds on the chords. Sounds like I'm using a phaser or something but I'm not. Also, when I play back the track I've recorded the sound is extremely muddy and uneven.
I'm running the Shure PG58 into a set of Lyon AMP3 speakers, then running the speakers into the Line In port of my laptop because I don't have the adapter I need to plug the mike directly into the computer.
Any comments, suggestions, tips, or helpful advice?
