About death metal growling....

[Impamiiz]

Q:To cup or not to cup when growling!? (Putting your hands over the mike so the voice gets more guttural)

I think, generally, NOT to cup...

Cheers

Well, depends on what effect you wish to achieve. Cupping can give a more distorted sound, which may not be very good when recording, but can sound quite cool live.

I agree with Nefilim though I don't use cupping that much.

Not to be a bitch but Death earlier works were plain death metal and their later works were more technical metal with bits of thrash and death metal influences

seems like you hijacked this poor man thread

to get back with the subject
cupping is fine sometimes no to often

it's no to be used to get a deeper voice
