Stop EQ’ing Your Distorted Guitars. Do This Instead.

Most people try to make distorted guitars clearer by reaching for EQ..

Boost the top end…

Search for and notch out “problem” frequencies…

Maybe start swapping plugins or messing with multiband compression…

But sometimes the problem isn’t that your guitars need more EQ.

Sometimes the distortion itself is smearing the pick attack and note definition that made the part sound clear in the first place.

My latest video shows a simple way to bring some of that clarity back without making your guitars harsh, thin, or fake-sounding.

The good news is that it’s DEAD SIMPLE and you won’t have to spend a dime on the latest and greatest gimmicky plugin.

About

My name is Bobby Torres and I’ve been a full-time audio engineer/producer/mixer within the metal and hard rock genres for well over a decade.

I’m on a mission to put an end to all of the false information that leads aspiring producers and mixers down a never-ending path of confusion, wasted money, wasted time and very little progress.
