Congrats on your Golden Ears Ian!!!
Holy cow! Thanks for the SPACEBAR tip! It's a game changer, especially in SpacePan Champ! I used to get so frustrated with the mouse.

I like the main melody
I just started SoundGym back in Novemebre, and all I have is my laptop (DELL Latitude E5540) and some headphones, no other speakers. Besides decent headphones (I have the Sony Stereo Headphones MDR-7506) is there anything you all can recommend to get better sound quality so I can hear certain frequencies, distortion, any better?
Anyone have any experience with SoundID Reference from Sonarworks?
Thank you all!

I'm using Beyerdynamic 990 pro's(250 ohm). They're worth the price. Open back and pretty accurate with the sound details. A Good pair of headphones is an incredible investment for your music career

I have Sony 7506s and they’re great. I believe they’re enough for SoundGym—given you have a decent audio interface (a simple Focusrite will do).
For music production and mixing I think Beyerdynamic 770s are one step up from 7506s—especially the soundstage.

Incredible work, Felix. Congratulations on your Diamond Ears!!!!
I'm not able to get through level 1 of dr.compressor. Some sample are pretty easy to determine that it was compressed but for other it sound to me impossible.

Does it get better by doing it everyday, because i'm scared to loose my time if I can't pinpoint where to hear compression in a sample.

Thanks in advance !

Great video. I recommend for everyone training to hear compression.

It definitely gets better doing it every day. A couple of things to listen for: does it sound slightly farther away? and/or is th crack of the snare less cracky then it is likely more compressed. Is there a lot more tail going on - also likely more compressed.

I was doing my daily exercises and Googled a song I liked, but while the result was similar, I don't think I found the exact song that's on this platform. This is the song Google found: https://tidal.com/album/166739490/u
