And (try 'sweep' just to determine the center and width of what you hear sticking out. Not the other way around.
Well, that's part of the problem. I don't hear it as I mix. I hear it in the car system when played loudly or quietly. Yes, quietly. When very low, the songs freqs that are most apparent, as far as the guitars go, are the upper mids and higher. To me.
Then there's the fact that a few ppl with good ears point out the guitars and their upper mid quality. So, I check in the car, and I can hear it when played at extremes in either direction. But when I sit and mix, I don't.
So I use my ears and eyes. I sweep through those mids and sure enough a ton of spots pop out at me. Since theres so many in that region, I first try the amp heads treble and presence. When that doesn't work, I resort to a few cuts in only the worst areas.
