There is a lot of really really good misinformation in the article.

My favorites are:

Because generally, if you use a good EQ plug-in, it works at higher bit resolution than your “daw” software. ?????????

The equalizer is here to fix holes in your mix and to add air in the higher frequencies. ???????????

The only place he got it right was

Take into account the following thing; if it sounds louder, that doesn’t necessary mean its sound better.

I don't think the writer was a native English speaker. Way too many typos in the article. I think a good trip through the spell checker would be in order.

Oh well that is why you have to have your SPAM filter on in your brain when you surf the WWW.

Another important rule I always try to follow on is that the final mix will always be at 24bit and at list -10db. Its is very important rule because if we bounce our mix at 0 db like many beginners do, we will be left out of db range, and will not be able to use our compressor in the right way. To solve this problem put your best equalizer plug-in in the master channel and lower the volume to -10db within the “Eq” and not from the master channel itself. This way you manage to preserve more of your bit depth and sound quality. Because generally, if you use a good EQ plug-in, it works at higher bit resolution than your “daw” software.

:shock: :? :roll:

There's even more fun in one of the other articles:

If you buy a cheep (sic) microphone believe me you will lose a lot. There are many good microphones to choose from, but you need to understand there are no miracles, if you buy microphone and pay for it 500$ or you buy one that cost 1200$ there will be a big difference.

As some of the greatest microphones ever designed fall around the $500 mark and some of the worst I've heard are over $1k, I'm not sure where he's going here...
