| Whats the best way to get a good recording level to record an acoustic guitar, or vocals? using the lo input gain i dont seem to be able to get a high enough level, yet using the high setting i get hiss and background noise. patch level and gain is turned up, any other ideas? |

You don't say whether you are using the in-built mic or not? How close are you putting the mic to the guitar? |

Almost any cheep condenser mic will work with the PS-02.
Even the ones most people throw away with old cassette decks. Anything with a 1/4" plug on the end.
Get one at Goodwill, junk stores and garage sales.
As long as you don't bounce your guitar much while recording, you can just drop it in the sound hole. |

I am trying to get a good clear signal from the onboard mic. I have another mic i can plug in that works better but for quickly knocking out ideas i want to be able to just switch to a mic patch and press record. Does anyone have any patch settings i could try? Sometimes i record two people at once so cannot get too close to the mic, yet the hi gain setting seems a bit noisy. |

The answer for me is to cut the high eq and shut off the znr. This will get rid of hiss and sibilance. However, being close to the mic is important. Musician's Friend is blowing out a quality Sony electret condensor mic for $30 right now. It's very easy to connect a mic. I do it myself. |

ive just looked at the alessi bros website, they recorded the demo with the built in mic. Wonder what settings they used? |
