I'd like you to find me one current commercial hard rock/ alt rock
mix that you believe has no eq on a particular instrument. Tracking
perfectly looks good on paper, but I always find that there is
something that can use a little tweak, even if its just a dip of .5
db at 300Hz... Also, even if something is mic'd perfectly, its
always convenient to have a decent eq if need be. You have an analog
board and I don't think you realize the FLATNESS of digital eq.
People blame summing of digital to make their mixes 2D, but the
digital EQ is a close second... But the key is summing out of the
damn computer.. thats step number one....
Okay, I understand. But I still think a few channels of Kick Ass brand
EQ on your guitars, vocals, maybe a drum or two, and your "2D" plug-ins
for the hi-hat and tambourine would be better than 16 channels of "not
bad" EQ for every channel.
Still, what you should be looking for is a used Speck 16-channel stereo
EQ. They seem to go for a lot less than I'd expect, considering what
you get. Find one of those and you can still afford a couple of APIs.
Hey hows my Samson doing???
Still waiting for the schematic.
