Question for anyone who uses HEARS Perfection plugin: I remember someone in the Mixing Intensive saying they set it at 50% once they have completed the test. Not sure if that is the gain or the scale. I'm wondering how others adjust the settings, and why. I did lower the gain to make sure the meters weren't maxing out. I have the manual and have watched a couple of overviews on YouTube, but would like any info available about best practices.

Im so excited I just got the Silver Ears Award form SoundGym.

Does anyone have iZotope's "Velvet?" I'm wondering how it compares to RX 11 for de-essing, de-clicking, etc. Looks like it might be easy to work with, visually.

If any of you are having trouble booking check-ins, or are new to Mastering.com Membership, we've put together a new document that walks through the process of booking a session. (Standard and Premier Members can upgrade to VIP at https://skool.com/mastering/plans to receive Check-ins and access to other benefits) As a VIP member, you can book one Check-in session per calendar month for one on one mentoring. The sessions are in 15 minute increments and are for asking questions or reviewing tracks you are working on, both assignments from the curriculum and personal music. These sessions are open to members to join and view to learn from watching the mentor sessions. Please read this doc carefully for full instructions: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TWVySVsg6QyOED7G9CVf8HtwAxDWHRSzy5ggTMwm0wU/edit?tab=t.0 Hope to see lots of you on calls soon.

I can see in the calendar that there are monthly calls for women, which I think is absolutely fantastic! The call unlocks with a premium membership, but it says it's for TRE in the description, thus the confusion. Are you welcome if you have a Premium membership, or is it only for women who are a part of TRE?
