Very good tips. I also tend to use speakers a lot more because wearing headphones for extended periods of time can get tiring! (Especially when wearing glasses)
I’ve always noticed that reverbs can get lost in translation but I never thought to attribute it to the room acoustics. I just figure it was because headphone are sitting directly on your ears but that does make some sense. Especially for the more subtle room type reverbs.
I understand it this way speakers are one thing, and headphones are different things, so both are needed... and then just the rest of devices are coming in, for better mix... AgreeWithYou+
Pitch a more concise call to action at the end and loop it faster: You’ll get more replays = higher retention and this will spread more! Thanks for making this typa content ur a true goat
I'm very far removed from audio industry, but this is such a good youtube short. Thanks for not treating your audience as idiots, not including part two's and laying every tip in well-defined easy to digest statements
The only way I can mix on headphones is if I flip to a reference every other second to keep myself in check. Even then, the car check still shows me my faults 😅
About 10 years ago I mixed my band's demo with headphones. And while I wasn't 100% satisfied with the results (who is, really?) I still felt it was a solid mix. I suppose you make a good point here about reverb. Where's the video you reference?
Legit sometimes check if my speakers are on when using headphones. And everytime I am surprised when my speakers are off. Left them on once purposely to listen to the difference, and it just sounded even more full.
for my opinion and what i do is i mix and master on headset 1st then listen back start to bottom on speakers then if i feel mox is dull i aint use headphones
Every mix I've ever done with headphones always sounds terrible on monitors but not the other way round. For me headphones are like a microscope to check some tiny detail and tweak it in the mix but the overal mix should always be done with monitors.
Yes, all you said is good advice for mixes intended for speakers. However, mixes intended for headphones only, such as the Atmos binaural version, is best done in headphones.
@@darkskinwhite And almost all consumers will only ever hear this headphone mix! That's why it's so important. If you're doing Atmos---headsets are paramount. Speaker mixes that get folded down to stereo ARE NO LONGER ATMOS SPATIAL MIXES. Statistically speaking, no one will ever experience 9.1.4 Atmos speaker mixes ever!

Randomly stumbled on this, impressed by the lesson about perception.

Yeah! I always thought the same thing. And I was surprised to learn it has a lot to do with the masking effects of natural room decay.

Sometimes when using headphones I get like a placebo bass effect where I feel the bass in my body even tho I really didn't.

Just make sure to wear proper ear protection if you’re pumping it up 👍

No, I mix on MacBook | ASIO speaker 🗿
If your mix doesn't sound good on phone speakers or from the car one lane over then your mix isn't done
Ok but maybe train ur ears
