Just completed Music Production 101 Mastering. My first attempt at Mastering Music. With the training provided it went well. I felt that it sounded better than any other attempts at Mastering. Overall, I feel I had a good success. If anyone is just starting this maybe we could compare notes and how you felt about the course. I still need to purchase a camera for my computer. Any suggestions? Also, any suggestion on a good pair of headphones? I was looking at the VSX from slate but was unsure if that is what a beginner really needs. Happy Mixing all. That is where I am headed next to study🎧.

Ok time for next query. Closed, open and ( for me unknown until today ) half-open back. Talking about Studio (HP) headphones. I have always used closed back HPs. But recently one of my friends told me that U do have to use open back to hear the stereo information. I do not use headphones to hear that, I do use headphones to isolate what in a track i don't like (over and over on repeat). But it maybe sounds true for anyone only using HPs mixing, mastering. So whats your take on this topic, open or closed ? and for that matter on, in or over ?( for me the only alternative is over) and now to the reason for this post. I have some very comfortable AKGs, so comfortable that I forget to take the off when fetching coffee, making it time to switch. What is your favorit HPs model and brand? Best Regards P-G

so very interesting, when I was doing the limiting exercise for there is fire, I realized with Loudmax's ceiling at -1db I could not get to -9 RMS at all! Not until I changed my ceiling to -0.1 Db. I cranked up the gain on the track, as well as the volume to the TOP, and it still didn't get to -9 RMS, until I changed my ceiling! Don't know if I did it right, but pretty cool to figure that out lol. Let me know guys. :)

Does anyone know when the next Fix-The-Mix is gonna be? Unfortunately I had to go away for a year but now I'm back and eager to keep learning. Also, have any engineers had a good experience with the Slate Digital ML-1A Mic Setup & Software??
