The Kali LP8 V2 monitors are an excellent choice as well. I absolutely love ‘em. My small setup doesn’t require a sub but the LP8’s provide a bit of extra bass which is really impressive in both feeling and sound. Everything that I’ve mixed using the LP8’s has translated perfectly when converted to an MP3 and heard on other devices as well as in the car. They’re fairly affordable and the crisp, accurate sound is absolutely fantastic! Highly recommended 🤙
Good to know! I really love the look of the Yamahas - which I know has nothing to do with the sound - and their brand has a great history. I have an early 80's vintage stereo amplifier from Yamaha and it's _still_ going strong.
Not sure how the monitor influences the conversion itself, but don't forget to bounce the track master to wav with ceiling at -1.0 db, before converting to mp3. Mp3 won't clip after the conversion, unlike wav with ceiling - 0.1 db converted into mp3.
Look out for Dan Worall's channel, this guy knows the craft in and out, pretty mind opening stuff, his factual engineering approach in the lessons covering vast amount of knowledge, including specifics of digital domain regarding mastering / dither / conversion / levels, found a lot of stuff in there.
As I understand it, Bob Clearmountain used the NS-10's so he could hear what his mixes sounded like on home stereo speakers. Because Bob used them, other engineers started using them. Eventually, everyone used them because everyone else was using them.
That's exactly why he used them - and why so many others still do. Back then, _a lot_ of people listened to their music on HiFi stereo systems. Basically every producer and audio engineer uses some sort of "home stereo", vintage HiFi, or modern HiFi speakers for reference in order to get an idea of what their mix will sound like on consumer audio. I do this myself with a high-end 80's amp and speaker setup. Also, single Bluetooth speakers (with tons of bass), wireless earbuds, and car stereos-which often have a lot of signal processing-are _by far_ the most popular listening devices nowadays. Thus, it's extremely important to take those into account and listen to your mixes on them during the mastering process. 👍
i have a 12x12 bedroom with a queen size bed behind my set up my desk is up against the wall in corner of the room with a window to the left back side of my chair door to the far right so i am not sure which to get
I'd get with the largest size you're comfortable with, as the bass will be very weak in the smallest models. My home setup is roughly the same size. My bedroom is 18' x 12' - with the bed and door placed just like yours. I'm also using a pair of vintage Acoustic Research brand HiFi stereo speakers as reference monitors for mastering, but that's another story altogether.
I would get the HS5. If you didn't have your bed in there I'd get the 7 or 8, but considering your limited space the 5's will be best. Don't want to hurt your ears sitting too close to larger woofers for extended listening sessions (unless the volume is reasonable)
The NS10 history you stated has a lot of errors. The NS10 is an *unported* speaker with an unusual paper cone and an unusual driver. This meant that it was (1) midrange-heavy and (2) had an *extremely* fast and exact time response, making it an exceptional transient "debugging" speaker. THAT is why it was sought after. The HS series has none of these features at all. Many HS units have better dynamic response and bass response (the HS3 and HS4 are worse than the NS10) but the time response is not remotely as good.
I love this new things of yamaha cool i love sweetwater i love USA and country music i love nashville its my favourite city on the world ❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️🌟🎸🌞🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️😊😊My name is mahdi and im 22 years old and i live in italy im a guitarist and i play guitar almost over 7 years now i love songs like big e rich runaway with you ❤😊😊❤❤i hope this 2024 my dreams it comes true to play guitar in nashville with country artists its my dream and find a girl in USA with blonde hair in nashville ❤❤❤😊😊
My question is just how useful is the traditional monitor setup in this day and age when so much adio is consumed using subwoofer/satellite speaker arrangements?
You need to be able to mix the audio/music properly, which means you need a strong and distinct midrange, because that's where a majority of frequencies lie. A lot of consumer sound systems beef up the bass and treble, which can sound good to the ear, but the music needs to be mixed properly first in order to translate well and sound good on mainstream consumer audio equipment.

Being a Yamaha fan and musician user since 2008 and still in 2024, they still make the best music products ever made!!

@@indyawichofficial1346 This is definitely something I'm going to try.
@@indyawichofficial1346 ...granted I haven't had problems with clipping in my finished recordings, but I'd like to test out your advice / technique.

I really wish Yamaha would make a 3 way with a duel concentric ( co axel ) monitor with a sub.
Why not triple concentric?
whats the difference between hs50m and hs5 ?
