Hello Everyone! I have some questions.

1-Probably a big part of the community are musicians. I’m a musician too. I’ve done many gigs, and over time I developed some problematic habits. For example, I mostly played acoustic sets with two speakers, and most of the time it wasn’t really about the music, it was about the atmosphere. The main expectation was “don’t disturb the customers.” As a vocalist and guitarist, my first focus became sibilance control and taming the low end of the acoustic guitar. Then I aimed to make the vocals as clean as possible so everyone could understand every word. I repeated this process so many times that now, whenever I sit down to mix or start a project, these are the first areas I focus on. How can I fix this problem? It feels like I’m stuck in that mindset.

2-The second thing is related to the first one. I’ve listened to music from the 70s and 80s for most of my life, and I’ve always played whatever I liked. Now I want to start listening to all genres of music. I want to develop more artistic ideas, perspectives, and a deeper technical understanding of music.(not talking about music theory) I know it’s kind of a weird question, but what should I listen to? Where do you guys usually find new stuff to explore?

3-Do you guys work out using open-back headphones or closed-back headphones? Which one is the right choice?

4-Lately I’ve been doing daily exercises and taking some mixing lessons, but now I’ve hit a plateau. Finishing my daily workouts feels harder. Should I try to complete all the tasks no matter what, or if I fail one day, should I just continue the next day? What do you think?

Anton, thank you for your detailed answer. I’ll read it a couple of times and take some notes. I really appreciate it. Have a great Halloween — or the worst one, depending on which side you’re on! I assume you’re with the good people.🎃🎃😁😁

On SoundGym, my best advice is to keep doing your daily workouts, and every time you get on, try to beat your high score on each one you have available. I started that today. After you beat your high score, just try again one more time and see how much better you get after beating your highest score. Have a great one, and I hope this helps!

Yeah, Gold is the first stage to directly fight for Diamond! Nice job!
hey guys!
i feel like the games bass detective and feedback eliminator do not show up on my daily workouts. I've been doing these exercises for almost a month now and they never show up to me. does this happen to anyone else?

A few months ago I discovered I had this problem also, to fix it, go to your account settings, select the training tab, click the switch to turn smart training off , and then double check that all of the games have a green check next to them, if any of them have a red x, then click them to change it to a green check. When you are finished, then switch smart training back on.

It turned out that for some reason I had a couple of the games switched off, and I didn't even know it.

Hope this helps!

As for the Boost and Cut games, I don't know how you guys can get such a high score! My command of the mouse abandons me, and my reflexes get jammed!
Really liking the halloween theme, kinda wish it was like this all year round!
