tl/dr: If you hear something fucked up, say something!

Constructive criticism is good.

Out of curiosity, what do mine sound like on real monitors? I have three or four different speakers to listen on, but none of them are actually good, so i generally just try to find a spot in the middle where none of them sound painful, and let it go. Which isn't to say that the mix won't sound terrible elsewhere...



But of late, i have been increasingly curious as to how things sound to others.

Unfortunately, if no one says things sound fucked up, a person with no way to hear the mix on decent monitors, will never know.

Usually, they have a pretty hefty spike at around 500hz, and the low end is kind of murky. It's there, and it's low end-like, but there's usually no differentiation between the kick and the bass (when there is bass). However, your drum tracks always sound downright sexy.

Interesting! I usually scoop a bunch out of everything except the snare and guitars at 500hz. On this end, 50hz has a big peak across the board though.

And i am always fighting with the bass sound. I need to spend a lot more time figuring out what i want to cut and where for that shit. Probably has a shit ton to do with how much i pimp 50hz though...

I am also generally pretty concerned about how the drums sound, so it is interesting that they sound okay on decent monitors.

Thanks for your thoughts!
