I'm not exactly sure you're disagreeing with what I'm saying. But then again, I'm not exactly sure what you're saying. What do you mean "capturing a good live sound"? It's not about capturing a live sound. It's about producing a great song within the confines of a studio.

And, again, a band that is worth their weight in dogshit can do this.

Not necessarily. There are plenty of very talented bands that sound overproduced in the studio. They don't have the same spontaneity that they do live. Part of that I think is on the producer, maybe all of it. But there are lots of examples of great musicians that sound too confined, too regimented in the studio. Dave Matthews Band is a perfect example of this. They are great musicians (except Boyd) but they don't sound worth a shite in the studio.
