Can You Mix and Master Music On Audio Technica ATH-M50x?

Ғылым және технология

Today, I try to produce music on the Audio Technica ATH-M50x's. These headphones are controversial at best in the audio world. They're... the spork of headphones. So, can you produce melodic dubstep on a spork?

    I agree, I've been using mine for the past year and my mixes almost always translate well. Maybe a few things here and there but it's always very subtle changes

    Thats cuz when you listen music on the same headphones for a long time, your ears is getting used to the sound, and thats why is your mix and master are good.

    Does the m50xbt works the same way just with an additional BT function?

    Nice job on sharing some insights into using the headphones. BTW, I liked your eye reflection on the screen, kind of trippy but it went with the tune in a nice way.

    Thanks for sharing! Totally agree with your point that you have to learn how the mix translates; there'll always be a learning curve, regardless of monitors or cans. 🤘

    Most definitely! Someone also made a great point that using a reference track will also help tremendously.

    This was interesting, very close sounding Masters. Good job. I will say though if you're not used to those headphones you can't just adjust to that mid frequency pile up on the fly. I changed the ear pads in mine and they're a lot more flat and even . I like them for mixing. I like my Sony MDR 7506s for mixing . But for production I'll use something like the audio-technica's there's also a pair of headphones called one-odio pro -10s or pro-30 i think... those are pretty good for production I've even mixed in them they're not quite as accurate as the other two, but they only cost like $30 and they sound great. Thank me later

    You can mix and expecially master on them, very revealing on the highs without tearing your ears a new one like the Beyerdynamic phones do. Just have to make sure to constantly a/b with what your doing vs good outside reference material. Even with mastering with just the Lurssen Mastering console as long as your mix is really good. Cnn get top notch "hey where did you get your track mastered bro?" type results.

    Choose your answer: YES: With Sonarworks / SoundID response correction. NO: Not trustworthy enough on their own. Mix/Master with Open Back headphones. Audio-Technica Ath-R70-X are the right ones for mixing/mastering

    The choice to mix/master with headphones isn't necessarily based on budget or monitoring environment. Many producers choose to mix/master on headphones because more often than not people are listening to music on headphones or earbuds these days.

    Hard to say. IEMs are generally not recommended for mixing and mastering work but I’ve heard that Moondrop Blessing 2 would be a good place to start. The only problem is that it’s expensive. From my experience the Truthear Hexa sounds up to the task but keep in mind that the order of mixing gear is speakers > headphones > IEMs

    Absolutely! In fact that's how most producers/engineers will work. I just wanted to see how things translated from the M50x without any form of external bias.
