a little tip for working with headphones

Post by Mr Man » Thu Dec 13, 2012 10:12 am

if your like me and dont like using headphones for any length of time, try monotoring a live room mic just sat on your desk while you work. seems to open up the space, making it less claustrophobic :wink:

great, however that's not the purpose of using headphones, it's rather about tracking clicks, peaks, phase and panorama anomalies, and so on. :mrgreen:
