Good man, that's exactly right. The suggestion to "play good" is about as helpful as that to "record good". Especially when I explicitly stated that the playing is not what I'm concerned with here. It was just a convenient clip to use!

It's like the countless responses such as "use your ears", or "get the sound right at the source".
Yes, those are valid suggestions, but they are also a given most of the time.
There is obviously good timing for those remarks, but time and again around here that's the ONLY response a question will get, and it's not good enough on a forum dedicated to recording gear.
I'm always a little suspect of users with low post counts who constantly spew the "use your ears" comments and make little other contributions to the forum.
It would be like joining a fishing forum and trying to sound like you know what you're talking about by replying "first you're going to want to go to a body of water......."
Sorry, if that's all you have to contribute, I'm not listening......  |
