holy nut sacks!
After reading this thread, I decided to play with the guitars on my bands current recording project. I've had some problems with them lately. So, about a month ago, I tried Colin's EQ "starting points" and shit started sounding cooler, but not QUITE there. I went in just now and flattened everything, then added about 3db at 6k, with a 1.00 on the Q. I spread that out over all 4 guitars... one word... B R U T A L .
It's the sickest thing. I knew we tracked a great tone, and I couldn't figure out why the hell I wasn't hearing it in the mix... It was because I was EQ-ing the piss out of it. I was over thinking it by LONG shot.
Thanks Andy... you are indeed the MAN.
