What was the moment that made you realize you needed to do ear training?

For me i had just gotten fed up with tips and tricks videos and knew i needed to do things by the book to really move forward.

When I started DJ'ing and playing my songs next to everyone else's tracks. Mine just didn't sound good in comparison, so I started taking mixing classes online and eventually found Soundgym.

I did pitch, interval and chord quality ear training since I was 18 and I was always pretty fast grabbing the right fader to turn down the feedback, or getting my own stuff to sound okay. It was when I started talking to others without the board in front of me. I could tell a guitarist, that's a major 7 sharp 11 so I figured I should be able to tell a soundperson That's 2K! or I need you to boost 250 a couple dB, no more than that…

Hi psychedelic electronic fans, I just put out a new track today. I made the music in Bitwig and the visuals in Touchdesigner (YouTube video). Thanks for listening, and have a beautiful day!
