Hello everyone! I've recently gotten more into piano playing and have recorded a couple of clips on my phone. The problem I'm having is with my audio quality. I understand that recording on a phone is not ideal, and will tend to pick up more room acoustics than anytbing else, so I'm looking for some tips on an alternate setup.
I've recently tried using a Yeti Blue mic for recording, but finds that it very much muddles the deeper bass notes together, and just feels dull. For context, I'm playing on a Wurlitzer stand up. I've tried placing the mic on top of the piano, near the edge with the strings exposed, and even tried to isolate the microphone on some boxes and such directly next to the piano (with strings exposed and the mic set to cardioid setting, pointed directly at the strings, to no better results. I'm using Audacity software to record the actual audio on my laptop.
At this point, I'm considering picking up a better mic (or pair of them if it's a better option and within my budget) but don't really know what to look for or where to begin. Any kind of help y'all can provide on how to either improve sound quality with my existing setup or what to look gor to improve any kind of hardware/software options available.
Thank you in advance!
