Has anyone spoken of the phase anomolies introduced by the improper use of EQ?

I guess I'm really old-skool and always look for it to sound 'right' with no EQ at tracking. Then any EQ used at the mix is simply for a bit of patina and not so much for repair.

Six points of EQ kinda seems to be compensating for something wrong in the tracking room.....dont you think....?

I find myself having a very narrow Q most of the time when mixing and not a lot of cut or boost unless its to simply notch something out that doesnt need to be there or it needs to make room for something more important.

As I gain more experience, I come around more and more to this way of thinking.
