I just reamped an upcoming album four times yesterday. From start to finish...
And I have been working on this album for several months so you can imagine, with the easy reamping abilities of the Kemper, that this was not really the first bat-shit-crazy reamping day
But yeah, today I came to the idea that... perhaps I should try to... guess what... EQ A LITTLE?!
Point is I have tried to get the right sound right from the Kemper. Except some HP and LP filters, I want the actual guitar tone to be perfect right out of the box.
But is that a near impossibity? Not saying it's impossible, but I have thought of the part of post-EQing in Cubase as "destructive" and not doing any good to the source material:
But today I tried making some wide but low boost at 300-500hz and the mids just popped out of the mix like I haven't been able to achieve with all these different profiles...
So, what kind of person are you: EQing in the mix, not no EQ?
I THOGUHT I was a "no EQ" guy but I must have fooled myself for several months now... so much time wasted...
