    The Sonarworks ride is crazy; you put it on and it instantly sounds weird on your mix, then you just get a feel for it and eventually adapt to the sound. Once you think the mix is done, you turn it off and now it sounds weird again but an appropriate weird, then there's that feeling of relief, knowing your mix will sound good how you intended it to. Thank you for giving light to Reference or just the idea of "flattening the sound during the process;" this will help out the beginners making their way to professional sound!

    Once again you prove why this is one of my favorite channels! I work at Guitar Center... I used to tell EVERYONE about Sonarworks. The average customer comes in and asks for “flat” speakers or headphones but don’t understand that most consumer products are NOT flat (or their listening environment is affecting how flat it could be). But people never listened to me, so I stopped wasting my breath. People do listen to you, and this video is what people NEED to see. Thank you Sanjay!

    Very nice Sanjay! I use Beyer Dynamic headphones like you do and didn’t realize how bright they are on their own until I used Sonarworks with them. It freaked me out but my mixes translate better now. I don’t always prefer Sonarworks over listening to my Focal Shape 65’s but they did wonders for my M-Audio monitors.

One other thing worth mentioning is that for someone who moves around to different studios it can make a difference, akin to bringing your own set of monitors but obviously you would have to take time to analyze each studio room. That being said I know guys who do this and it helps to maintain consistency.

    I LOVE that song. Is the full song up anywhere?
    Also I’ve never seen this addressed anywhere though I’ve looked it up. My car speakers even when I set everything to like baseline default settings still make everything sound the same. Whether I mixed it or Dr. Dre mixed it, it seems some car speakers normalize sounds? I’ve even looked in the cars manual and it said all it does is normalize bass to prevent speaker damage over time but it seems they’re doing more than just reducing bass. Is this a thing? Or have I reached a new level of ear fatigue?

    So dope! If you get a moment, would you mind doing a comparison with TB Morphit by Toneboosters? (It still operates as a plugin, so not as integrated into the computer system as Sonarworks).

    I'm curious to hear the results of mixing with the cheap speakers and sonarworks compared to the actual monitors.

    How to measure with mic, if I have a subwoofer? Do I turn on speakers and subwoofer and only measure the speakers?

    This make me remember back in the days when Bose speakers first came out. Bose then was the odd shaped boxes with I think nine small speakers in those boxes. The whole setup was speakers, stands for them, and a Bose box where everything plugged in and out of. All of Bose advertising was about using multiple small speakers and the reflected sound since they were designed to be put a foot or so away from your wall, the reflected sound would spread the stereo image. Bose hyped the reflected sound over and over. Well later people started digging into the Bose speaker and discovered they were using basically the same speaker as out of a Cadillac car stereo system, a at the time a $4 speaker.
    People were wondering what is making the Bose system sound so good. Bose advertising constantly talked about reflected sound and multiple speaker when it was that mystery Bose box that was the secret ingredient to their sound. Tearing the box down revealed it was a equalizer boosting and cutting the signal to make those inexpensive speakers sound good, which is basically what your Sonarworks is doing. Tweaking the speaker to make them flat. Bose had analyzed the speakers they used used the mystery box to compensate to make them flat.
    There is units like this for live sound. I worked for a large church and we had a similar type system I believe by JBL that had a microphone we put at our mixing location. The mic sound was sent to a rack unit that in real-time adjusted the signal being sent to the power amps EQ'ing the sound. Large rooms and concert halls the sound is changing all the time with the number of people in the room so have this system kept the room sounding the same all through the night.

    Quick Question, Sanjay:
    Adam Audio T8V Or KRK Rokit RP5 G3?

    • @SanjayC
      @SanjayC  4 роки тому +1

      I haven't tested either of those so I can't really say. But between the KRK and Adam 5" monitors, I think the Adams are better for accurate mixing.

    This is nice to know that there are options, even if you got a bad or not necessarily bad but "colored" studio monitors you can change that.

  • @erikjonsson6594
    @erikjonsson6594 3 роки тому

    Really cool to see the comparison. The first example showed really that the sound "got out from the speakers" more. However should you really hold the mic while you meassure and not use a stand? (or maby this was just for the video)

    • @SanjayC
      @SanjayC  3 роки тому

      This was for the video. I actually used a stand. But you know, the Sonarworks instructions show someone just holding the mic.
