Re: I think I might have to stop using headphones

I set my levels to a VU meter well I think this is probably a large contribution to my problems. I now realise gain staging without using a UV meter is just a stab in the dark. I grabbed a free meter and went through a few a bunch of tracks and although my levels look good, the meter told a differe...

Re: I think I might have to stop using headphones

I dealt with this by calibrating my monitoring. Work to same rms at same level. If I turn it up too high I know straight away as the volume dial won't be where it should. I produce mostly in headphones. (OLLO S4X currently..... Amazing headphones). Ears tested every year and in better than average ...

Re: I think I might have to stop using headphones

I use only headphones, my room is untreated and my monitors are Eris E5s. Theyre good little speakers but theyre only decent to check when the track is at the final stage and I'm listening for mostly loudness and mid range clarity, they have a cutoff of about 50hz so sub work is a guessing game. To...

Re: I think I might have to stop using headphones

I do get mild short term ringing in my ears from time to time, I usually hear it when I go to bed. Its not anything painful, or long term, or anything to keep me awake. This is just normal stuff right? Well, it's the "normal" reaction of your earing system when you listened for too long at loud vol...

I think I might have to stop using headphones

I have a real issue with listening at low volume when using headphones. Im forever touching the dial and gradually increasing the volume when I'm producing over the course of a session. Especially when I'm trying to dial in on a certain part of the mix. I dont know if im already going deaf (sorry, d...

Re: Unboxing the Behringer RD-9 Rhythm Designer Drum Machine (First Impressions)

I might try out this RD909 just for the crack. See if its fun with the 303. But its been a long time coming and the novelty idea has worn off now. Im not really to fussed about hardware atm, I'm enjoying working in the box.

Re: Going Modular..

Im no expert at modular at all but I think a good way for you to start mate would be to but a small case and fill it with a sequencer or 2 and cv controllers and use those to control your hardware synths. Seeing as that's what you are into at the moment. See how you get on and expand from there. But...

Re: Psychoacoustic / "3d" / binaural plugins

Im not familiar with this process but after seeing this post I had a quick look on YouTube and came across this.

The expanse 3d plugin is nice. I also liked the sound of upstereo as its more extreme. I can imagine having fun modulating the controls and using it as it wasn't intended.

Re: Pedals

I've been looking at the Boss HM-2 recently and was close to getting one. Then I heard the behringer HM300. The price difference is huge but the sound isn't really that different at all.

For £25 new its hard to resist.
