I must say, I am a big fan of V-picks. I don't go above the "Lite" thickness for most things, but the Chirping sound is not too bad on them, especially for practice (They give my sweaty left hand confidence it won't drop them.) . But I would to know if anyone has found a solution. I know that materials science has the answer. I would like to know what sort of epoxy or material I can spread a thin coat of on the tip, so I still have grip, but have a sound that is a little less shrill when struck particularly hard.
With a Parametric EQ in front of the chain, I found a frequency, with a h10.00 Q, somewhere between 1450 K and 1550 K that seems to reduce the particularly edgy part, but I do not necessarily want to limit that. Maybe there is a higher frequency that I could dial down.
I have put sally hansen's hard as nails type products on picks before also, and that smooths out the tone a bit. But I don't think its necessarily the end all be all.
Has anyone else tried either a different EQ setting, or a different applied-materials solution?.
