Hello everybody,
I'm looking for frequency training tips.

I realized that i find difficult to identify certain frequency ranges, especially from 2k to 6k, i'm having hard time to recognize the character of those ranges, and of course trying to guess from nothing on different instruments/sounds make things harder.

Do you have any guide (video possibly) you can suggest me to understand better the qualitative placement of frequency ranges ?

Something that goes more specific than eq charts blue print?

Thanks in advance.

At what point is soundgym still making you a better producer/engineer/etc. vs. just making you good at the games?

At my level I'm 100% sure it's still helping (I'm not even at bronze yet).  But at some point, your ears must be good enough and you've played the same games 10k times and you must just be training for the game no? 

Kind of like a PhD drummer that can hear a 31/30 polyrhythm pattern, but can't come up with a great beat for a Beatles song (obviously that's a flawed example, but hopefully it illustrates the point)

Curious what you guys have as your goal before you think my time is probably better spent elsewhere? And curious if it changes by profession?

I'm more of a songwriter & musician and use production as a means to get good demos to producers and engineers.  I think my goal is to get to 75-80th percentile on each game and then I will feel I have done my basics and am ready to move on to other areas of learning.

Anyone else think like this?

Just wondering of I revert to a free account, what do I miss out on? Can I only play certain games or something?

This is a great thread with some interesting insights! I've only been on here for about two months but have noticed dramatic improvements in several areas, getting to the 80th percentile. However there's others, namely compression games, where I just can't hear and don't know what to listen for and as such I'm not improving much at all. On that note, if anyone could recommend any good blogs or Youtube videos on how to hear compression I'd be most grateful!

I have a free account. For me, these points (or awards) are not that important. But the training is. It is completely comparable to sports training. It does not help much when I reached a certain (athletic) level and then stopped training. I may not set to myself a higher goal, but I will continue to train - this will keep my muscles in good condition. Same here.

@Adam, it depends on your goals. About what you have difficulties with - strengths, weaknesses. And about the time that you can devote here during the day.
