113- Tone Terms (Chris)
Manage episode 375348360 series 2724103
How do you describe tone? Seriously… how do you describe guitar tone? Lush, responsive, meaty, throaty, organic… its a never ending thesaurus of adjectives to describe the feeling we have when we hear it.
Of course tone is very subjective and opinions may differ. Some like a tone that is flabby and others like it tight. Some like it scooped and others want it in your face.
But… Why do we use these terms? Do they have an origin? Is it okay to use them with the band? Can 2 people have a different meaning for the same tone word? When is the right time to use them? Are there naughty words of tone? Can you describe tone to a beginner? Can you describe tone to a sound engineer? When is it better to just talk in frequency? And… words like Transparent, Quack, Sag, Ballsy, and Trashy… are these good things?
Well we will discuss this, and more on this group therapy session with Chris, on the Tweed Couch.
