What do I do, when the sounds in the mid- frequency range are muddy? It is the ak. guitar or the vocal. |

Low Mids can be muddy.... high mids are sharp....
Turn down the lows.... if there is no bass content in the source remove that too.

| Eq Techniques |
|
|
Good use of eq at correct frequencies:
Vocals
LF: - 2.0 dB at 187 Hz with Low Shelf Response
LMF: 0.0 dB at 265 Hz with 1.0 Q
HMF: + 3.5 dB at 2.99 kHz with 1.0 Q
HF: + 4.0 dB at 12.6 kHz with High Shelf Response
Why: The LF Cut and HF Boost makes the vocal cut through the track and have a breathy, close sound. The HMF boost adds projection to the vocal. This EQ, unlike the stock library parameters, carefully avoids the 7.0 kHz range that accents vocal S sounds.
Further Changes: If the vocal becomes too thin, a 1-3 dB boost of the LMF (at the indicated frequency) will restore body. The HMF frequency can be varied towards 5.0 kHz to increase distinction between guitars and vocal. |

cut around 200 hz. in your bass and drum tracks, that should help clear out a bit ....
cut lows from guitar, vocals, etc ...
the rest should clear up as you go ... |

Hey
I cut from 400 hz. in the vocals and the sound is just fantastico. Thanks for the tips. I realy thing the muddy sound came from the room, (my living room).
The sound is the silver.
