Hey Drew! I am testing the Virtual Monitoring Add-On, and I would like to know if it is safe to use it enabled during the entire production, mixing and mastering process. Only turn it off when exporting the track. Is it correct to use it this way? And what are the differences between the speaker positions? Is it a matter of taste or does each of the 3 serve better for a proposal? Thank you.
I use AKG 702's for mixing and 361's when recording. I noticed in Sonarworks, that the EQ curve is boosted in the bass. I was wondering if Sonarworks compensates for the supposed lack of bass, particularly in the 702's, when calibrating and if this might skew the true response? Apologies if i'm over-thinking this. or more likely, misunderstanding! Thanks for the videos. Cheers!
Hey hey. The AKG- 702s, similar to the Sennheiser HD series, have a large LF rolloff in the bass, starting from fairly high up. This is common of that design. So yes, the SoundID Reference profile will be compensating for that and boosting the LF. So it's not skewing the response. It's actually correcting it to a psychoacoustically balanced response. Let me know if that answers your question. Cheers!
Needed this so bad!
Happy to hear it helped. Cheers!
