All the mic does is change the tone, which isnt hurting anything and is a great help when you record all day and dont want to spend clients studio time changing mics. Also yeah I just have airpods and reference my track there as well as the car and a mono small bt speaker. Dont listen on those and make huge changes but use them to get an idea of how they all sound diff and make smart small changes once you go back to your computer. Bt speakers are great at telling how loud or quiet your mid or side might be. Def a good idea to do ref on diff things you know well

    If the finished product sounds good, then it sounds good. Just get comfortable with how your monitoring tools translate to general listening.

  • @msmoozesful
    @msmoozesful 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

    Flat freq response is doing a disservice for a mixing or mastering engineer. Yes the headphones should be CALIBRATED as flat as possible, but seasoned engineers apply the harman curve on top of it , exactly because the average listener is not gonna listen in a perfectly flat environment, heck the human hearing curve is not flat , it is logarithmic, hence not “linear “………Fetcher Munson curve etc…..

    I have a bunch of headphones I've collected over 20 years. I bought the Slate VSX when they first came out due to Covid lockdown as I couldn't get to the studio and had to work from home.
    I still split my time between my main monitors and these and they're really excellent. Mixes translate really well and they're comfortable and fun to use.
    Yes, I was marketed to, but they work for me and they're good for the price.
    I've tried mixing on all kinds of headphones and my mixes always come out trash compared to VSX, the first headphones that got me most of the way there.
    Are they perfect? No. But what headphones are.. they're worth the money entirely for what they promise and what they deliver.
    Whatever you use, you have to "learn" it.. monitors or headphones, nothing is perfect and everything has its quirks. Even the flattest speakers, if they have very flat midrange, it sounds un-natural a lot of the time. Referencing tracks and checking mixes on as many different systems as you have is always the way to go. I check my mixes on at least 3 systems I have and I make notes about what sticks out, then go back to the mix and adjust it. That's actually where the VSX is useful because you can check on different systems including hi-fi, boombox and phones, which can be very revealing for things like low-mids where you need the harmonics in the bass to hear it on tiny speakers. The auratone mono is a useful tool for this too and VSX has an emulation of that too.
    I'll never trust anyone else's opinion on monitors or headphones but my own. Firstly, I know what I like and second I believe that companies market to the lowest common denominator and to what people think sounds good.. Popular brands like Beats absolutely SUCK for the price, the bass is SO heavy and unbalanced.
    Have you seen the HEDDPhones? They use the same technology in Adam tweeters and it takes a while to get used to them, but many people say they sound amazing. Totally different design to any other headphone.
    I have HD650's and they're clean, but I can't mix on them for shit. They just sound so soft. I can't explain it, but they're not for me when it comes to mixing.
    I also use an external DAC with headphone amp which makes any headphones sound so much better than a regular headphone output.
    So, yeah. This guy has his opinions, I have mine

    I'm a big fan of the Slate VSX. My mixes on them translate very well. They don't have the level of detail that a good planar magnetic design does. But for broad, tonal balance decisions they are excellent, especially if your room and speakers are less than ideal. I use them alongside my HS8's in a semi-treated room. It's interesting that if I do a mix completely in VSX and then reference through my monitors, it always translates. But if I mix through the speakers and reference through VSX, the same doesn't always apply.

    Some input from an hifi enthusiast whose also done some audio production work in college when it comes to working with headphones: Find a well reviewed hifi headphone (preferably one with low distortion) within your budget and use oratory1990’s library of eqs to get them to the harmon target. This should be good enough.
    Tho it is important to keep in mind that most things people will listen to your work on will not be tonally perfect as the EQ’d headphone. So listen back to your work without the eq to see how it would sound with a different tuning.

    Everyone hears things slightly differently, and the unique shape of our ears plays a significant role in how we perceive sound. Other factors, like our brain’s auditory processing, age, and sensitivity to frequencies, also contribute. As you become a more experienced engineer or listener over time, your critical listening skills will improve, and so will your preferences in headphones. So, it’s best to just buy what you like and can afford. And just like with monitors, the more you use a pair of headphones, the better you’ll get at mixing on them. You just do the best you can with what you have, and if you put in the work, it will pay off.
    My current headphones are the ATH R70Xs. I’ve always enjoyed the way they sounded, but a few years ago, I came across an ear pad modification that took them to a whole new level. That only happened because I was curious and having fun learning about headphone design. It’s fascinating how the sound of headphones isn’t just about the speakers-things like ear pads, the shape of the cups, and even the materials used all play a part.
    Also, keep in mind that AP Mastering is coming at this from a mastering engineer’s perspective. That profession places a strong emphasis on perfection and attention to detail, which explains why some of his takes might feel overly picky, even about headphones that many people think are great. A lot of what he critiques has to do with the level of precision required in mastering. That said, about 50% of what he puts down in his videos works perfectly fine for general mixing. So, when you listen to his thoughts, keep that context in mind.

    I've used ATH-M50x for several years and then chose to use the HD 560S so that I could appreciate the flatter response and the wider stereo field. All of a sudden, my subsequent creations were a boomy, muddy bassy mess. I think that what is most important is that you use your chosen pair of headphones for absolutely everything that requires listening to stuff on your computer/phone/TV etc. You'll learn how they interpret sound and you can use that knowledge in your own creations. I think that Scheps is on to something as he has chosen one pair and stuck with them.

    it is weird to end on the HD600 line~ I think most people would classify those closer to "fun" headphones for their lush midrange which I would argue is actually inaccurate since most other neutral headphones [or any for that matter] do not even come close to that level of lushness, not to mention they are not as detailed as other headphones and so if there are mistakes in your mix you will not hear them which kind of defeats the purpose....

    Really can't argue with facts and charts but how about quality control not every headphone is going to be exactly the same and could actually vary a lot.
    What I would say is to get some good audio compensation software instead of driving your audiophile head nuts

    I use ATH-MX50s and they're absolutely fine. The same can be said for my M-Audio BX5 bookshelf monitors. Neither products are top-end, or new, but they work well and have a flat enough response to trust when mixing. You should also be mixing with a variety of commonplace outputs. Listen to it in your cans, in your car, with your monitors, and with in-ears. You can strike a balance using multiple devices, on a budget, and end up with a tight mix. Also, how does such a knowledgable guy completely gloss over the importance of isolation with closed-back headphones AND the fact that you're also listening through something that's more in-line with regular consumer products? He's got some good points, but approaches things in a really weird and pretentious way. I'd describe his arguments as lossy.

  • @le-berry
    @le-berry 9 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    This guy is stating the obvious and pull the shit right out of his ass to make him look smart... Closed is used for recording only so they do not need to be accurate. Freq response is not that big of a thing impulse response and overall speed is more usefull to make good mixing decisions. I never mix on headphones I use them for production only. I do not need to compare the mix on headphones either or check low end. My room is pretty tight and the focals have very low distortion and have a 30-40000hz range. This guy just want to show of while he essentialy gives ZERO usefull information

    I literally can’t stand Sennheiser headphones because of their “neutral” sound and vastly prefer Audeze for transient and detail resolution.

      And you shouldn't forget that Audize headphones are very expensive. If I buy something that expensive, then it has to be good. That's the psychology behind it. expensive = good. Marketing works.

    • @adalundhe
      @adalundhe 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @samshephard7164 There’s truth to that, however - in the case of Audeze, between their support and the quality of the work I’m able to accomplish (I do commercial audio in great part) their cost is a well justified investment. Some good things are expensive because they are good.

      @ That is a myth that you can easily bust with REW and measurement mic. You cannot avoid room problems by putting head near the speakers. If u measure that positition it will be really bad. If you use speakers with no low end then you will not have low end problems. But then you also cannot hear the music correctly.
