Do we agree SDC on the neck and LDC on the bridge for acoustic guitar recording?
I have a AT2020 (large diaphragm) & AT2020 (small diaphragm). Would you have the SDC on the neck (12-14 fret) and the LDC at the bridge, or vice versa?

Home Recording - Acoustic Panel Advice?
Hi all, has anyone simply 'stood up' acoustic panels around yourself when recording acoustic, vs hanging on a wall?
I was comparing options for 4 to 6 24"x48"x2" foam panels with ChatGPT & got the following recommendation:
Panels 1 & 2 (behind you): Stop reflections returning into the microphones. Placement:
- About 12-24 inches behind your chair
- Slightly angled inward
Panels 3 & 4 (side panels): Control side-wall reflections. Placement:
- About 24-36 inches from the guitar
- Roughly level with your shoulders
Panels 5 & 6 (front panels) :Control reflections from the wall in front of the microphones. Placement:
- About 24-48 inches in front of the microphones
- I would face these while playing
FWIW: I use a AT2020 & AT2021 condenser mics, record Stereo I record fingerstyle acoustic guitar in a 10'x12' home office
