Landslide - Acoustic 12 string

I installed an LR Baggs Anthem in the 12 string a few weeks ago and finally got around to playing around with a little recording to see how it sounds. The Anthem has two separate sources: an undersaddle ribbon transducer, and a soundboard mic. These can be blended or one or the other can be made dominant (the mic is always on though, while the transducer can be turned off).

This recording was made with the blend a little more dominant toward the soundboard mic, but only slightly so. I normally wouldn't plan to record an acoustic (12 string or otherwise) with a pickup, but where I live precludes any real chance at having a good time span of background noise free neighborhood (Spanish Harlem, NYC).

The track is an unedited live recording of a newly learned song done late night after a long week, so be gentle. :mrgreen:

Moving stuff over to Soundcloud as the other place seems a bit dodgy lately.
