    which music tracks will be exposed for bad mixing with good headphones?

    Elaborate title there… What I mean is: I want to buy headphones for mixing, but I need to know that they will be unforgiving and expose a mix that’s lacking. What tracks do I play through them to make sure they will expose it when my mix needs work?

    Is it just me or are Green Day songs mixed in a really interesting way?

    I was listening to Green Day and I noticed it was quite a bit quieter than some of the other rock bands I listen to. I think it's less of a volume thing and more of a loudness thing. I know mastering protocols have changed a lot over the years, and the loudness you aim for depends on the media...

    Bluetooth headphones for recording and mixing?

    I'm not too familiar with the technology of Bluetooth, but I noticed that a couple headphones generally known for studio uses, like the Audio Technica ATH M-50X and the AKG K371, both have a version with Bluetooth features. How would this fare for studio use? I imagine mixing wouldn't be that...

    Budget-ish IEM for a mixing engineer

    Hi there! Crossposted from elsewhere: I'm not a huge fan of the Moondrop Starfields I currently have. Weirdly narrow soundstage, unnecessary treble boost... I'm a complete amateur when it comes to IEMs but I know these are not what I'm looking for. They're still good, but they're not the...

    Can the HD 58X replace the HD 600 as mixing headphones?

    For as long as I remember, the HD 600 has been something of a gold standard for mixing and mastering. If I only had a dollar for every time I saw a photo of a smiling audio engineer with a pair of these sitting on the desk behind him! Still, despite its legendary status in the studios all over...

    I've been using HD800 + JDS o2 amp for creating music and mixing, and compared to monitor speakers (don't have treated room, so I don't want to use speakers if I can help it) the HD800 seems to have something wrong with its mids, like its mids is missing something.
