[QUOTE="Evan Kirkendall, post: 92747, member: 5"] Re: EQ sweeping You're pretty much taking the mid range grunt out of everything and leaving a lot of boom, sizzle and midrange harshness. There's multiple ways to address muddy stages, but I wouldn't go about sacrificing my FOH mix to clean up the monitors. I usually find the most issues down lower, around 160-300hz. That 500-800hz ranges serves a pretty important roll in a lot of instruments, and I really don't want to lose it out front. And ironically, I usually cut quite a bit of 500hz out of my vocals, especially if they're using a 58. The 10k rolloff on OH's and Hat seems a bit extreme too, as a lot of MI speakers really won't do much above 10k- I'd suggest a roll off around 500hz, and a few cuts as needed along the way to clean them up. Once you get rid of the annoying stuff down low, you'd be surprised how nice the mid range sounds! Evan [/QUOTE]
