2:37 Open-back headphones DO NOT block outside noise at all. They are, however, generally considered better for mixing and mastering.

True, many people don’t listen to their music on a 400$ pair of headphones or in a acoustically treated room, but taking those measures (producers) often allow for the continuity of high quality sound on all devices. You can mix for AirPods, but then crank your music in a venue and hear all the inconsistencies, pop, fizzes, or muddled sounds.

The right pair helped me in better hearing what's going on. Went from the DT770 Pro (80ohm) to a Focal Clear MG Pro, and that was a difference between day and night. Another important thing is to get to know your headphones very well, and to keep use reference tracks while you mix to notice anything strange.

Nowadays people consume music mostly of the time on their AirPods or headphones. Make sense mix music with headphones in this era. Adapt the product to the actual habits of the listeners. We don’t need no more huge expensive studios. If you want make sure about your final result buy those virtual studios plug-ins like Realphones, match the low end of your song against the reference and that’s it.

@@josepe217 well most large artists make the majority of their income touring from live shows, not streams, so mixing for the venues, stadiums, etc. becomes more important and should also translate to headphones. Rather mixing for headphones won’t translate to the venues.

Andrew Schepps mixes with Sony MDR-7506's and Audien produced and mixed Wayfarer with Sennheiser HD 600's. That's all I needed to hear to know you can mix and master with headphones. My opinion is it's optimal do use speakers in a well treated room with Sonarworks and headphones of course.

Biggest obstacle for me using headphones for mixing and mastering is that I'm not able to hear stereo image properly with headphones. I quess you can develop some sense of stereo image using headphones but that propably requires huge amount of cross referencing between speakers and headphones to develop that skill. In headphones your ear receives only information from that same side channel and with speakers you will always hear both channels with both ears. You can't hear that accoustic summing between channels using headphones.

Having a second pair of headphones with different sound than your main pair can also help a lot. I have the dt770 and I had translation problems because they have a dip at low/ low mids around 150- 200 hz so they hide muddy frequencies and an other one at harsh high mids. I have also a pair of 30€ edifier that even if they don’t have the detail and soundstage of the dt’s they are pronounced a bit in those frequencies that the dt are lacking. I tend to start by editing and high pass using the beyer set and then take a break and move to the edifier for bigger moves and the whole picture, then an other break listening to reference mixes through the dt’s and move to mixing more details with those, at the end I will listen to both and if it sounds good at both then most of the times the mix translates to most of the systems

I have found that headphones are better to mix and master with. Using just monitors/speakers with no encapsulated signal routing creates too much natural reverb pickup from the environment. You actually want to master with 2.1 channel encoding which you can do with analog equipment (soeakers). That will rebalance your mix and help the mix harness from the distortion caused by clipping.

you also can bring down the volume of your reference about -12dbfs (around -18LUFS) and anker your kick around -12db to have room for the master. thats how i compare my mixes to the mastered reference

I dont get it! when we purchase reference monitors either speakers or headphones, they are advertising a flat frequency response, we believe it has a flat frequency response, then when you see how that frequency really is, you wonder if you have been scammed! I thought that by purchasing reference monitors, by default they should all have a flat frequency response, so again I dont fck..ing get it. Am I missing something?
@dsanj4745

"Reference" speakers and headphones approach a flat (aka "neutral") frequency response. Presumably the more expensive they are, the closer to neutral. The problem with reference speakers is that they won't do much good in a room that isn't acoustically treated. The dimensions and surface materials (wood, sheetrock, etc.) of a room (as well as furnishings and/or carpeting) play a part in how sound is reflected and, as a result, certain frequencies are emphasized, de-emphasized or canceled outright. So even if the sound coming out of the speakers is 'flat', the sound reaching your ears may not be. The use of nearfield speakers mitigates room acoustics somewhat. You can, however, treat a room (at some expense, of course). Reference headphones, on the other hand, render room acoustics irrelevant. There are pros and cons to both approaches but headphone mixing is generally more consistent and certainly less expensive than reference speakers and room treatment.
