You mean the most common and rudimentary ‘wisdom’ that even the guitar magazines have been talking about for decades?
Yeah, I am begging to see some of that! Lol
I feel like (in this life or maybe even in a prior one) he must have been some sort of condescending teacher…likely English (at least as a second language)! Lol
It's hilarious though, because that common knowledge is a part of every RTer's memory banks, and he proffers it like its the mana of the gods. He thinks so highly of this completely banal, basic, stock information, that anyone could get for free, he
wrote a damn 50$ ebook about it.
But the really
interesting knowledge, is where the stuff "everyone knows" falls apart, or there are exceptions to those basic things we all learned in guitar magazines growing up. Most of this knowledge can only be gained by long years of experience, or talking to/learning from someone who has long years of experience. I call it "high gain gnosticism."
And every time something like
that is brought up, something that can only be acquired through hard work and experience, Tone-dig-mort starts arguing and playing pedantics and gotcha word games. Because he knows hes out of his depth and can't admit it. How could he admit hes out of his league, when he has the balls to write a 50$ ninety page "bedroom recording guide"?
"you see, that doesn't follow the
Rules© that Glenn Fricker and Fluff set out, in their very scientific and peer-reviewed youtube videos!"
"You see, i'm standing on the shoulders of giants like Newton, Richarn Feynmann, and Galileo, because I use
ULTRA SMART GUY, PEER REVIEWED SCIENCEY SCIENCE™ to back up MY claims!"
and then invokes danth's law and bails, instead of responding to any of the (normally valid) criticism of his excellency's knowledge.
Especially telling was not understanding the difference between "tight" and "loose", and how headroom affects the low end for high gain sounds.
You would have to be a complete neophyte to not understand these concepts, of course. But he's written an Ebook! So he has to save face by pretending the headroom issues caused by lower wattage amps can simply be "solved" with post EQ and IRs, as opposed to admitting he's probably in AA or Fall league, most certainly not the Majors.
