Listen to the 80s tracks where the reverb sounds super trebly, and you are like: how was that ever successful?!!! I dont remember it like that.
So yeah, this is probably a monitoring issue.īut its also an ear fatigue issue. Scoop the mids just a little and the mix sounds SO fun and incredible! Bass is swimming down low, cymbals sound like they are right there. Does anything sound lifelike and perfect on NS10s? Never.īut I can make NS10s sound incredible, awesome deep bass and super accurate, lifelike highs. Worst because its really really hard for me to keep the mix sounding slightly ugly with them, but also beautiful, and not go toward 100% beautiful. I do things with them that I cant/don't/would never do with a full range "flat" monitoring system. No doubt, when I use them and I get it right, its magical. I have NS10s and they are best and worst.īest, because they force me to make the mix interesting. Man, I felt like writing this thread yesterday. This used to happen me a lot when I started making music, but I find it worrying that it still happens to me after a lot of years on this. I'm only able to see once I leave the song for a couple of weeks and then hear it again. Don't know if it has a lot of highs or a a big lack, or if I have too much mids or not. It is like after 20 minutes or so, everything sounds good to me.
They were right.Įven when I have some reference tracks in my daw, it seems that I'm unable to see the wrong balance of my mix. Then, I try to listen to it from "a different point of view", and I realise that it sucks. I've made the final mix and after sending to the client, they tell me it sounds too bright, almost no mids. The last attempt I've done has been today.
I've been working during these 6 years around 10-14 hours a day, producing and mixing, reading hundreds of books and trying to improve day by day.īut I see that after all this time, I'm still unable to achieve good frequency balance in my mixes. I'm writing this post because I find myself, after more than 6 years, overwhelmed and really worried.
