At the very bottom of the page, on the left, there should be a button to subscribe to the thread and you should be able to choose to receive email notifications of new posts. Hopefully that helps. With respect to recording, I'd say try playing with mic placement and angles. I'm no expert either, but I've been able to record doubled guitar tracks using Ardour (free and open-source DAW) and a cheapo mic and/or my android phone's mic that aren't horrendous. Mic placement has a lot to do with it from what I've found. In the link below is a doubled guitar track I recorded on my galaxy S7, then dropped into Ardour to do the time alignment and panning for the stereo effect. My phone was just resting on my knee about level with the right-side center of the 4x12, and about 20-40cm back from it, with the phone mic pointed straight towards the baffle. Moving the phone around shifted the way things sounded once recorded. Sorry I can't be more of a help; like I said, still new to recording as well. If I find out how to attach the file to the post or embed it instead of link to a web page, I will. Best of luck!
