Before you mix in earbuds, I want you to try this. Put in your earbuds and listen to the bass. Now stick them in a little farther and listen again.
Listen, you get to monitor on anything you want. The most important thing is that what they sound like. But equally important is that itās repeatable.
For me, earbuds arenāt. Iāll reference on them, but if I canāt work on a set of monitors that I know, in a room that I know, or at least one that I trust, earbuds arenāt my first choice. The class where we discuss things like headphones, monitors, microphones, cables.
Thatās called Hardware Recording Primer, and Iām just about to put another one on the calendar. If somebody who belongs in it, share this post.
