Hi guys, I am exploring headphones to train my ears in SoundGym. Currently, I am using Audio Technica ATH-M20x. May I know your headphone model? And based on your opinion, are studio headphones good for ear training? Thank for your feedback!😊
Next big purchase is definitely going to be X1 by Ollo. But for now, I'm using Beyerdynanic DT 770 Pro running through dSoniq plugin for a flatter response. I've liked working all headphones (Audio Technica M50x and even Apple airpods Pro 2nd Gen!) the the dSoniq plugin versus Waves and others--at least I've been more successful with it. Hope that helps. Good luck man!
I'm using a calibrated Sennheiser HD 650, with the SoundID calibration file for this specific pair of headphones. I really like them, and the calibration is very evident when turned on/off. The calibration makes a big difference. I've not tried the X1s, but I've heard very good things about them. I imagine the calibration files with the X1s make a very big difference, as well.
Just like @Steve Rinaldi, I am using Sennheisers H650 but with the general SoundID calibration. For two years, and I don't see myself using anything different in the future :)
Just curious, those of you working full-time mixing/producing/writing, what advice would you give to someone doing this still as a hobby but with small wins like a sync album cut and a couple of self-releases online? - I've been out of the game a little since last year and now live in a new area, looking to double down on the production and pick up some jobs or publishing deals, but at a loss where to start.
Wow. Why should I want to unlock stuff I can’t even try first? Such a bad initial experience! I can’t try the game I am interested in and the initial games are clunky. I made a big mistake creating a damn account here. I’m sure I’ll get all kinds of marketing shit just for the sin of being mildly interested in your distorted reality training.
What is wrong with software people? They can’t be bothered to actually tell or show you how their stuff works without harvesting an email address.
I have started doing workout 6 days ago. However, I am still in Level 1 in Peak Master. I am in Level 4 in DB king and Pangirl. Its really frustrating for me. How can I improve in peak master? any advice?
It just takes time to hone your ear. Play the other EQ games too. They all fit together and some are harder than others. EQ Cheetah has helped me a lot. Just keep going and be patient while yours ears and eyes match up. It takes steady but persistent training. I have been playing daily for 6 months (I'm an experienced sound tech) and I am only at level 18.
I've found from experience that it's normal to get higher levels in some games than others. I'm much better at DB king than Pangirl.
There are several youtube videos out there that will help to teach you how to recognize certain frequencies. Once you're experienced enough, you start to be able to hear the various hiss frequencies that can give you clues. But it's very challenging starting out.
