So I did a small test in my dinky home studio (after figuring out that my Townsend mic can adapt itself to the kind of isobooth I use for recording).
It was just based on the discussion we were having in another thread on how much mids is too much? And how much is too little?
For this purpose, I ran my ESP Richard Z Kruspe signature guitar into an Engl Savage 120 with bass at noon and treble at 3am. For the mids in this video, I set them to 3 o'clock.
In video 2 of 2, I set them to 9 o'clock.
Apols, I didn't use a DI and run it through both amp settings, because where's the fun in that? Instead, I for the most part played the same two sets of riffage. The first is the class Born Too Late by St Vitus. The second is one of my originals.
Not having golden ears, I prefer the one with more mids, because my recordings often sound incredibly dark. But I can see how I could work with the second sound as well.
What do you guys think?
