Members Unstrung Posted March 9, 2010 Members Share Posted March 9, 2010 It's n00bish when you're playing with the rest of the band, especially live, especially with a second guitarist. That's when no one hears guitar, they just hear fizznoise and mush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members grunge782 Posted March 9, 2010 Members Share Posted March 9, 2010 What do we mean by "scooped"? Scooped can sound damn good if you do it in moderation. Not 10, 0, 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BeëlzeM Posted March 9, 2010 Members Share Posted March 9, 2010 If you like fizzy tone without body or thickness or any kind of character at all that also doesn't cut thru a mix, sure, scooped mids might be something for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Say Ocean Posted March 9, 2010 Members Share Posted March 9, 2010 A lot of the best metal albums have {censored}ty production and would benefit from a little cut and clarity so you could hear what's actually going on better. Not talking about honking mids... just a little more balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Uncle_Milton Posted March 9, 2010 Members Share Posted March 9, 2010 Because even those metal bands grew out of it. But arrested development and all, you're adorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members demondestroyer Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 I like scooped mids for most metal and like boosted mids for things like Steve Vai.I never had a problem hearing old metallica or pantera going to the shows back then and the tone was huge and defined.I dont care how much mids the kiddies nowdays are using most of the music just sucks!

Members Rydock Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 Yeah I found that scooping mids is good for high gain rhythm when used in moderation. But for leads, I prefer to have a high level of mids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TornadoOfSouls Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 I don't really scoop my mids but I keep them a little below noon. Too much mids sounds like {censored}. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam D is a {censored}ing solid rhythm man with a great sense of timing and can keep his playing tight even when running around and screaming at the crowd. Let's see you do that.

Listen, PussyTheAlt; Anyone can be a tight player with a great sense of timing when you're doing the same stupid {censored}ing gallop in every song. Adam D, sucks dick.
