The FAT Switch! - aka, "Mic'ing the Port"
Here's a tech tip you definitely need to know about your Freda cab. The port accentuates bass frequencies, so when micing the cab with only one mic, you want to mic the speaker cone. Micing the cone just off center is a standard placement and works well with your Freda cab, too. With two mics, however, you can mic the port as well as the cone and it serves as a fat switch built into your cab! I experimented with this in studio and the results were super cool. Micing both the cone and the port gives you the sound of a doubled guitar track with only one take! The port serves as the "second" guitar, and because it is a lower frequency, the track sounds huge! You can raise or lower the volume of the port track depending on how much fatness you want in the final mix.
