Scooped vs Boosted Mids for Metal (Updated)

[Little B]

Both have thier place.Also depends on the amp- if the amps' dna is already a mid fwd or low mid amp to start with

I guess I should’ve emphasized newer deicide, not the super old stuff

That's not old. That's timeless

That's true.

Boost the mids in front, cut to taste on the amp.

Yeah, thats a good way of balancing things out.
I just updated my first post. Would you consider the latest sound scooped?

not sure what that first clip is now, but I liked the definition. That thing sounds mean straight in.

Mids until blood from the ears please.

Depends which rig I'm plugged into. Dime rig? Scooped(duh). Slayer rig is Marshalls so it's definitely more mids. Ultralead is more neutral.

Depends on the cab. For Metal, V30s you can scoop the hell out of it, and in fact, I'd say you need to unless you want a pole to the forehead.

Other brighter speakers, not so much.
