To all the people on this great forum,

I have recorded and done a slight mix of a solo steel string acoustic guitar through my DM3200. Three pieces in total. One featuring a Concert Harp. Man those things are amazing! Its by no means finished, for example i think the "Allemande" track (track 2) i sent a wet and dry mix through another channel and that channel was clipping at times and off course ill need to address that at some point.

But so far, i would really really benefit from having some of your fine ears and minds have a listen and give me some feedback (please as constructive as possible) Anything at all, critique the performances, sound of the instrument/s, overall mix and the like, would be greatly appreciated

Anyone? ..... This is unusual for Tascam Forums.... :/
 
Excellent playing. My only criticism is there's absolutely no depth to the guitar or effects. To me they all sound like mono recordings. I'd try experimenting with stereo micing if possible or use a good stereo reverb effect to give it some dimension without making it sound artificial.
 
I know I am late getting in on this but WOW I loved it!

Beautiful playing!

I quite liked this material. And you are a fine guitar player. Recordings sound pretty good... I agree that given that it's solo acoustic work... you should try some stereo micing techniques - for more depth and dimension. Not sure what mics or preamps you're using but someone of your caliber should be using the best that you can afford. Nice work!

Beautiful music. I will have put less reverb or a little bit shorter (a little less space) to the track.
