Produce Like A Pro is a website that features great tips to help the beginning recordist make incredible sounding home recordings on a budget.
We know you love Factory Tours! Which other companies should we visit?
beyeeeeer
RME!
Audioscape!
Austrian Audio!
Gooood evening W, Neumann please? I bought KH80’s and sold my Adam A8X. I also have a range of Neumann mics :)
I wish more audiophile purists would come watch this. Three guys in a room with more knowledge of how it was in the room when the record was made. Clear discussion of real technical information with a bit of subjectiveness thrown in. It's just so valuable. I'm glad I've had my LCD-X for about a year now.
In the end they all chose the X. Congrats! On their recommendation that's the one I'm gonna buy.
@@hummarstraful Exactly. Knowing that the LCD-X is showing me what things actually sound like makes the reference feeling between my speakers and my Xs a little easier to understand. If they sound right, I can use that profile to influence what I'm changing.
Just ordered my first pair of Audeze headphones. Waiting for them in the mail LCD 2 Classic and it’s nice to watch this factory tour!
Im curious what you think of them, i also have a pair and they’re my favourite set I’ve heard. Only region that could be changed for me is the treble, slightly recessed but it responds to eq so well, that once eq’d it is really hard to beat.
@@callumtravers7512 hey buddy, honestly, I returned them, not because I didn’t like the sound, I just got into the audiophile hobby and found it an expensive hobby to pursue on top of my dj mixing at home hobby I do. I’ve spent like 1500 on music files in the past year or two plus thousands on room treatment and gear. I build all of my own panels. I just got a new pair of rokit 8” gen5 models released a month ago. Love them!
How did you manage to make this channel even more nerdy? 🤭
Genuinely fascinating stuff.
One day I'd love to listen to a pair of these.
Ha! We do what we do and do it more!
@@Producelikeapro keep up the great work 👍
This video is more inspiring than any tour video I’ve ever watched. The whole time I was dreaming of having one of these headphones or at least hear one. Thanks Warren 😎
Thanks ever so much!
5:00 some incredible technology!! love these tours
Thanks ever so much!
Well, after searching for reviews and comparisons non-stop for a week I found this one and it is pure gold. I no longer have to read any more forums where I have no idea who is writing.
Audeze hooked me up with a new maxwell as a warranty for my penrose. They have a customer for life.
Congrats Warren this is an amazing video! This video is worth much more than hundreds of youtube videos comparing various models of Audeze headphones XX vs XY! Well done!
Thanks ever so much Pippo!
Exactly. I took notes.
The noise cancellation chip with no software configuration is really smart thinking..... what a fascinating journey this is, and what a great brand/company creating these amazing headphones that are the closest thing to actual monitors for all us audio geeks, great video thanks Warren.
Thanks ever so much Sonic Art!
I like how you guys are not behaving 😂 please always bring Marc on each factory tour!
Haha we had such a blast!
Wow 🤩 my headphone's 🎧 dream! This episode was very special to me! I always wanted to know how they make this incredible piece of art! Thanks PLAP team
Thank you so much! It means a lot
I have the LCD-X and the LCD4Z.it’s a pleasure to master with them
Thanks ever so much for sharing
What's your opinion on the difference between them? I have the LCD-X and have been thinking about getting the 4z too.
I now use the 4Z corrected by Sienna by Acustica Audio.Great combo
@@francescodonadelcampbell3906 Cool. Thank you for the info.
Just bought the LDC-X based on Warren, Cameron and Marc's reviews at the end. Of all the videos I watched that was the most useful. All 3 of you guys basically chose the X.
The gold in this video is at 32:00 when they listen and compare the headphones. Don't miss it.
Very informative video. Wishing the folks at Audeze all the very best. Really looking forward to learning more about the Maxwell's releasing soon.
The MM-500 is unbelievable! Audeze is on top for sure
Thanks for sharing!
LCD-X is a bit better than VERUM 1,
I must say. I have both.
Verum Bass resolution: nice, a bit overemphasized compared to the LCD-X. Middle resolution: Good and sufficient. The LCD-X offers a slightly more precise and nuanced image.
Resolution treble: A bit intrusive and harsh, but still okay. The LCD-X is finer here. Resolution transients/attack: Great, but the LCD-X has a little more resolution and acts more gracefully.
Both HPs are great, don't missunderstand.
I prefer LCD-X for my taste and audio tasks.
So freakin' cool! I'd love to check them out sometime. Thanks Warren and PLAP.
You are welcome!
I'm having my OG LCD X's upgraded to the 2021 version. My phones as of today are right in the building that's being toured. Very much looking forward to getting them back.
Fantastic video one of the best factory tours ever 🙂
Thank you!
AMAZING inside look!
Thanks ever so much
Lovely craftmanship. I love high quality products.
Thanks ever so much!
Warren, MVP for upcoming young folks! Cheers!
Wow! Thanks ever so much!
Hey Warren. Thank you for this tour. Last year, I upgraded my DT 1990 Pro to LCD-X? and I would tell everyone it's one of the best decisions. Now, I see it's worth it price-wise.
Yessss🤘🏽
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
Haha Thanks ever so much DB!
Amazing, absolutely amazing. So interesting I was hooked. Great video Warren.
Thanks so much for watching
Two great videos in one. And though I know a lot of the music he has worked on, thanks for introducing me to some of the collection of Andy Wallace - as in the connection (him) between these albums. And i shall pay more intention to the (kick) drums of his mixed tracks, including that in the Grace album (and Nevermind)
Thanks for sharing! LOVE Grace! Masterpiece!
Loved this episode and really want me some LCD-X now
Yes! I just got my second pair!!
I have a pair of MM 500s. Love them to death. I mix EVERYTHING through them!!!!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the share... that was a great vid...
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video! One of your best. I gotta have a pair of those cans.
Yes! Absolutely love them!!
Fascinating process... especially the laser stuff.
Thanks for watching!
I own the LCD-5 headphones and they feel even lighter than their weight suggests. The premium materials 5:34 make them feel like you are getting your money's worth. Word of warning: If you are an 'audiophile' (yuck) and are afraid of EQ because you can't admit you don't understand it or don't know how to use it, I would skip these headphones (or most any Audeze). Audeze intended for these to be used with PEQ or filters. The stock sound out of the box is not tuned for consumer ears, they are tuned for technical prowess first, with the lowest possible distortion. If you are like me and understand how to use EQ and are not afraid of a little tinkering and testing for a few days to adjust the sound to your preference, these are the best headphones you can buy.
I own the LCD-2 and the LCD-X, as well as the EL-8. The LCD series are all outstanding with my only qualm being that the darn pads tend to fall off a lot due to the double sided tape mode being used to mount the pads. I really wish that Audeze would develop a batter method. Excellent video though!
I’ve just got the MX4 last week and they sound like awesome level one million.
Wow! Thanks ever so much for sharing
@@Producelikeapro Yes, sir! By the way, I've been following and learning a lot from your channel. Thank you for all of your great works!
Listening to this video on MM-500. Cool to see (as well as hear) where this comes from!
Wow thanks for sharing
Thanks for the funny and informative video. I rely on my LCD-X headphones. And I do check the sound on other pairs, as well.
Yay! I love mine too!
This video is top notch!
Thanks ever so much!
Thanks for posting this. Been looking at Audeze but still undecided of the model i want. I had to chuckle at Marks voice at 40:34 when he was in the cans.. LOL
Greetings to Chris Berens. He has been very polite and patient at the HighEnd, where I was first more interested in the headphoone amps.
Audeze headphones are amazing. LCD2 are on my soon to buy list :D
Thanks for sharing!
These are the best IMHO. My next purchase in 2023.
Thanks ever so much
Bought the LCD X. Absolute gamechanger!
Audezenuts!
Haha indeed!
I’ve had the LCD-X for 4 years now. To me they sound much better without the grill!
Marc and his antics! Ha. This is going to be amazing!
Haha. Thanks for watching
aayee bro`s! thanks!
Thanks for sharing
Visit Solid State Logic of course.
Oh and what a Great video!
Having all 3 of you guy's go through and testing out the whole line of headphones was awesome and more importantly, informative.
Oh! A dream!
@@Producelikeapro That could easily happen! :)
@@marcdanielnelson317 YES!! Let's do it!
I’m torn between lcd x and mm 500 for mixing - can you put some words to the differences?
Good factory tour and the listening session at the end was very interesting hearing your thoughts on the variance between the models, a bit out of my range for the moment but never say never. Currently using chord mojo 2/chord poly with HiFiman Sundara/Edition XS but I’d be keen to hear other brands take on the Planer diaphragm design.
Thanks for sharing! The whole day was interesting for us
Every November they have a b stock sale with 40% discounts on many products. Sign up for their newsletter to stay informed 🙂
@@ranjanthomas5982 which company?
@@Producelikeapro I was talking about Audeze themselves. They have an annual Black Friday sale. Just a few weeks ago the CRBN was available for $2799 and the LCD-5 for $3799. I would never pay retail prices for Audezes. The sales happen one or twice a year like clockwork.
They're like scientists of sound, incredible
Love my LCD-X (2021) 😍
Fantastic!
Hello, i just want to use one earphone and don't want to be tired of switching devices all the time depending on the type of music. I listen to 80% classical and 20% jazz and pop. I have also seen the mm500 so far, and I think the instrument part is quite good, and the vocals are in the front, so the female voice sounds good. Do you recommend other headphones at this level? I think the sound field of the mm500 is okay. For classical music, the instrument tone is not too modified. , the low-frequency dive is enough for jazz. I don’t know if I understand this right?
I'm getting ready to take the plunge. You guys better not disappoint me! I want one thing: translation.
was hoping to see the maxwell but guess thats gonna be a secret untill we receive them and have a look at them irl, but is great to see how our headphones are made
Great video. I would need to save up for a pair of those. Cheers
Definitely worth it
I wish they hadn't stopped making the LCD-4. It especially hurts when people keep saying they are one of the best ones even compared to summit-fi headphones.
Very interesting !
I can see why they are so expensive. True craftsman ship. Id get a pair when I have the money too, they seem amazing.
Have any of you EQ'd the LCD-X and if so, has it changed your opinion on these headphones.
Hope you had fun in costa mesa!
We definitely did!
I need to order the MM-500 soon
Please do!
35:38 enough said ;)
So what is the go to for mixing and mastering? Mm500 ? Lcd5? Or the new carbon thing ? What u gonna get? produce like a pro
I use the LCD X. Absolutely love them
This is great!
Yes! You Rock Marc!
Best part was watching everyone pick their favorites during the listening test. Marc..on your personal lcd-x at home, do you use any correction like sonarworks?
@@saladdaze7375 I had them too and no I do not use a correctional software and neither does Marc
I really would like to get their high end phones, but all the crappy reviews regarding the quality and longevity of the product hold me off and instead going onto Sennheiser. I can't spend $2000+ that wouldn't last 5 years or more. Any thoughts or comments? Thank you.
Anybody know what dB they burn in their headphones in at? Just good to have a reference number to shoot for, at home when new headphones come in..
Soooo nice to see the actual sound engineers' take on headphones who have professionally trained ears. Tired of self claimed hifi reviewer/ infuluencer. Almost all of their reviews have 'affiliation link down below' 😂😂😂
Are there any disadvantages to using planar magnetic headphones rather than dynamic headphones for mixing, besides the added weight? It seems a little ironic to use planars when mixing or mastering for translation, when less than 1% of the audience use them.
Also I am eager to hear about your results using the Neumann NDH 30s in particular.
May I ask preferred headphone amps for Audeze users and why?
Now get your asses over to France to tour the Focal factory 🤘😁🤘
We’ve already done the speaker factory! th-cam.com/video/184crGkXsKM/w-d-xo.html
@@Producelikeapro Awesome! I’m going to check it out. Thanks Warren!
@@SnWlf that’s wonderful
I think Audeze are the only headphones that could replace my NDH 30s.
Headphone hunger pangs. 😊
Thanks ever so much Audrey!
Im fan
Me too!
I seriously always thought it was pronounced AUD-EASE... lol oh well haha
I also did at one stage as well! Ha
27:05 - the dude was like "huh?"
How do you stop from mixing to loud in headphones and getting ear fatigue ?
Take regular breaks.
Also you can try set and forget at a level that feels healthy.
All that is very interesting .Where is that place? Mexico?
Orange County California
In conclusion, try MM-500 and LCD-X before buy.
17:09 burn in is myth
Which one???!!!
Dear Santa …..
You're been a good boy! Hope he brings something to tickle the ears
I actually thought this was a german company. I had no clue how small of a company they are.
Come on...no giveaway?😜 I want one of those. Anyone.😍
Let's sort this soon!
All I walked away with is "I like that one more than that one, for this track" without any idea of what model they were talking about. How about calling it out or splitting the video into clear segments
I love seeing the employees listen to their airpods
There was music playing in the factory, I had them turn it off so we didn’t get blocked
Ok. I still find it funny that they're making these headphones, but still listen to airpods. I understand convenience and all. Just funny.
@@kevinyounkins214 sorry, I assume you don’t know that they make open back headphones? So 20 people listening on open back headphones in the same room would be total chaos. Here’s an article on the differences between open and closed back headphones www.forbes.com/sites/geoffreymorrison/2013/11/02/open-back-vs-closed-back-headphones/?sh=1e3cd01516a5
@@Producelikeapro don't assume anything. I know these headphones very well.
like listening to a hologram?....SOLD
Yes!
Thanks Kip
you have been talking for so long and not talking a word about the gaming version of the headphones of this brand. How could this happen ??? This is not respectful and not fair!
The new headphones for gaming are coming out VERY soon! Stay tuned!
Incredibly boring. Tried to watch 4 times
Lol!! You need to have a monument built for yourself off the field.
