Hi guys, First time I try to make a video, using a single and not so recent iPad. Sound doesn't do justice to that fabulous amplifier; do you think I could do better with any iPad app (or any tip and trick for better recording) or should I buy some real microphone? Thanks for your time and help! Z-Lux and my Telecaster Z-Lux and my Duesenberg

Sounds good to me. Nice playing on the tele. I have the same tele in same colour but opted to change the saddles to brass as smoother under my hand than the threaded bar steel ones. Just a tad warmer tone too.

Your playing deserves better. What's your budget? I use: Reaper, Scarlett 18i8 and several different mics. A fav being the Shure SM7B.

Just a tad warmer tone too. Thank you! I love that Tele. I bought it barely used in a local shop at a good price. I loaded it with Rumpelstiltskin Pickups. I've wondered about brass saddles, but I don't want to mess with a guitar I like a lot!

Actually I didn't plan any budget for a mic, but I enjoyed recording these vids more than I thought. So a reasonably cheap option would be possible I guess. My main concern: something really easy to install / uninstall cause my amps are in the leaving room and my wife doesn't like guitar gear so much in there (actually I don't either ) What would be a good compromise between quality and easy to use?

Seems too sound better with the iPhone rather than the iPad...

An humble tribute to The Black Keys (recorded with my iPad, from now I guess I'll go with the iPhone exclusively )

Sounds good. It's always hard to capture how the room sounds with a mic and how complex the tones are. On the tele recording I could pick out some nice sparkle and still hear the undertone of a growl. That complexity is so much more alive when you are in the room with the amp and is hard to fully capture on any recording device.

I've been surprised by the pleasure I had doing these vids. I believe it can make me progress and I need motivation until I'm able to play with other musiciens. I may try to make some comparaison vids between Z-Lux and Maz 8; could be fun to do!

Easyrom,
I wonder of you can hook up an external mic while filming with the Ipad? I will check that out I have a nice Apogee mic for Apple products.
