Mastering With Headphones: How To Use Headphones For Mixing & Mastering

++ FREE GUIDE: Discover how to write a hit song ++ https://www.orpheusaudioacademy.com/hit ✏️ SHOW NOTES ✏️ I was taught that you absolutely can't mix or master on headphones, and for good reason. When working in headphones, your mix or master can sound great! It can sound clear and wide, but then when you try listening to your song in other environments or on other devices, it just doesn't translate well. But this brings up a big problem... What if you can't afford expensive studio monitors, or don't have the money to invest in creating an acoustically-treated studio? Some might say, "Hey, just pay someone else to master!" But if you're wanting to release a lot of music, the costs for paying for mastering can add up very quickly. I'll tell you what, if that's you, I can relate because I'm actually in the same boat. For people like us, our only option is mastering in headphones. Thankfully, if you apply the tips in this article, you can still create great, professional-sounding masters that translate well... Just using headphones. That's what I cover in this video. #mastering #masteringwithheadphones #mixing #mixingheadphones ⛓️ LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO ⛓️ ?
