    Basically, I'm looking to record a very simple b-side for a single with my band, just guitar and vocal, in my lovely studio (shed ;)) any advice??

    Im a novice pretty much, so im wondering what would be the best way to pan the guitar and vocals etc. Im using PT LE 8 an MBox2 with a functional condenser mic, and an SM57

    Any tips/ help much appreciated :D

    Is it just a mono guitar track and presumably a mono vocal take? If that's it, leave them centred unless you're feeling a bit George Martin.

    Depends on genre, but many times recording the guitar twice, with different panning sounds good. As for micing, usually condenser will be best for vocals. Try putting the vocals through plate reverb (change the reverb length to suit the song), and perhaps the lot through a more natural reverb.
