I had a long talk to someone who is a bit into recording. We were talking about high and lowpass filters. I said I always lowpass my guitars around 11khz. he said: That's a highcut, not a lowpass.
When I was thinking about it, it made absolutely sense but I've read it the other way around here.
Whats the difference (if there's any) between high/lowpass and high/lowcut and give me an example?
I thought it's like that: cutting a guitars sizzle is a lowpass (usually around 11khz), cutting the lows (up to 120hz) would be a highpass. this definition never made sense to me but that's the way I'm reading it here all the time.
SO could someone just please clear this up for me without making me feel too stupid? ah and by the way: I know how to use those filters, it's just about the definition.
thanks!
