This is something I have been wondering for quite some time now, the "don't polish the turd myth"...
As a person who picks up pieces of garbage and things that look abandoned to make them into a family of similar pieces to become something beautiful, I have never really agreed with this way of thinking but maybe theres something important im missing (which is why im posting this thread). Anyway, I always find myself looking at parts that I didn't mean to record, usually subby bumps and clicks and slides and using those and it makes me think, why not polish a turd when you can just layer different parts of the waveform (transients, body's, tail's, etc) and process them individually to add/subtract attractive/unattractive frequencies? Is this type of mentality based on getting things finished in a hurry and that's why it's better not to spend too much time on these kinds of things?
What do you think?
Thank you
