Acorn4 - when you say did I use a wave editor I'm not sure I know exatly what you mean. I use Reaper for mixing etc

I record an acoustic normally with two mics - either in this sort of shape /\ pointing at 12th frettish or |    | with one pointing at about the bridge and one at about the 12th fret - but I have also tried in mono. (And also with one mic several feet back from the other; and a few other combinations!)

Off to practice a song on Zoom H2 now though which is MUCH easier - ie stick it on the coffee table and sing and play!
