"Ah - that makes sense (mixing a mic with on-board signal). I've found the Blue "Baby Bottle" to be a great mic for acoustic guitar. It's very clear and picks up all the frequencies very nicely."

Singer-Songwriter Workshops...

HI Everyone!I'm interested in attending a good workshop centered around singer-songwriters and wondered if anyone has attended a good one. I'm hoping for something beyond the beginner stage and fairly challenging. I've written 12 songs with lyrics and several more instrumentals. I'm 56 and have played and sang in church forever but am just recently starting to write - and having a lot fun with it too. Thanks!, GarySee More
