So much so that I could barely listen to it. I used 'So' by Peter Gabriel as the reference. So I set it to 'Correct' and chose my Oppo PM-3 headphones from the list. I checked out Morphit a while back, hoping it would be as good as it claims (because I like Toneboosters plugins). I don't know if Toneboosters' Morphit includes solutions for earbuds/phones but you might like to check that out. I wouldn't recommend mixing with them but like I say - if it's working for you - and most importantly, that you feel comfortable. It's marginally less severe with the Dre earphones but the bass end is dramatically hyped. The higher frequencies are hyped and then roll off quite strongly between 5 and 10kHz. With regards to the frequency responses of the earphones, it is clear that the bass is boosted a fair amount - especially when you take proximity into account. I'm not sure how much mysticism there is (one could say that any mysticism is too much in this field) but I've certainly read some strange things that people seem to convince themselves of without any consideration for engineering. It has to be monitor speakers for me as I feel most comfortable using them and ear fatigue doesn't happen as quickly. So I'll only use headphones when recording live audio and as a quick A/B check. It's the restriction and artificial sense of sound that I dislike about that solution. I'm definitely with you with regards to headphones - I think I have a mild claustrophobic response to them - even though I'm not claustrophobic. I think I saw Bob Katz mastering audio on a sofa in his living room once. I now know to watch out for a device's response curve and have to find some earbuds with a flat one. So, all these speakers and headphone and people that like to tweak their system's EQ can have it their way. Looking at these guys, we see that they are really pumping that low end.Īt the end of the day, I mix flat against pink noise. I'm happy with my mixes, I've been doing them in FL Studio for 20 years and they sound better than ever.

If you look, it seems to be boosting 2k-5k, this gave me the artificial idea that the vocals sounded decent on the "slapped together" mix so when I brought it to my TV they dulled out. Here is the frequency response curve from my favorite headphones I noticed my hard mix sounded decent, my "slapped together" mix seemed to lack in the vocals department. I was chilling, listening to them on my TV, showing them off to some guests. One I pushed extra hard and one I slapped together. There is too much mysticism about mixing, mastering and monitoring. unfortunately, I can only afford a flat response curve. I've even read that some live performers have their earbuds custom fitted to their ear hole.

In-ear (earbuds) are no different from any other monitor, with a big enough driver and high-quality materials they rival everything else.

To buy it costs $149 (R 2,400) and it?s available for Mac and PC in the following formats ? VST/AU/AAX.I sit in a chaise lounge to do the majority of my sequencing and mixing, my laptop sits on my lap therefore there is no surface to put monitors on, over-ear headphones make my head sweat after a few hours and some feel like I'm sticking my head in a vice. You demo the plugin for 30 days to see if it works for you. There?s also a bypass button so you can A/B test between your mix and the emulated mix. This plugin is designed to emulate various classic reference monitors as well as emulate the characteristics of various consumer products such as phone, tablet, car stereo, TV etc).Īll you need to do is insert the plugin on your master out, activate it, select the preset you wish to emulate and MixChecker will present the sound to you the way it would sound according to the device you?ve selected. MixChecker is a plugin that developers, Audified, claim can do this all for you in the comfort of your own studio. This way you get to see that it will sound as good as possible across all platforms. So, as we all should know, the best way to test a new mix is to play the track in your car, on your i-fi and on any other sound system you can find.
