I volunteer to run sound at my church. I appreciate when you go into detail describing the differences you hear. I often can hear the difference at a high level but don't understand what I hear or how to effectively mix/manipulate/change it into something better.

This is one reason why it’s so important to have a community around you. Glad to have you here!

Seeing RME TotalMix in the background made me say giggidty. I will never use another audio interface brand ever.

I own the ADAM T7V. These are nearfield monitors capable of sound pressure levels more than 110 dB (SPL). They’re loud, very loud when sitting 3 feet from them. Great 👍 video, Kyle.

Another amazing video! Helps a lot to find monitors which is on the list and still missing in my studio🤘🤘🤘

I think what i'm planning for my room is having a little movie surround sound setup (i already have it laying around). While its not the most technically impressive thing, its fun! As far as my music rooms aesthetic idk yet though, i figure at the end of the day i'll just have to make music with what i have even if it may not sound good everywhere. Afterall musics not really so complicated if you don't want it to be, either it sounds good or it doesn't i think.

Most main far field monitors in major studios sound terrible. Ive worked at multiple Red Bull studios, sound scoring stages and big name studios in London and Berlin. Mains are for clients to impress them, the near field is what everybody works on for actual work in 90% of studios.

Agreed - If you want accuracy, near-field is best. When you want to cover a wider area and turn it up, far-field is the tool for the job.

Sadly you are correct regarding studio main speakers, my home big rig is much better in sound Quality than most studios. 95 % of people listening are either in cars or some low Quality Bluetooth speaker or a really crappy stereo.

Thats the exact question I was looking for :) I never understood where were the specifications which determines what was a nearfield or farfield centric speaker. I know a Genelec 8020 wouldnt be suitable for farfield as a KEF LS60 for example, but never understood where to look on a spec sheet Great video!

I love learning about hearing music. Yesterday I listened to an interview about AI. But that will not stop me from making music. When music changed in the 80s with artist using drum machines that did not stop well known drummers.

The Rick Beato Interview?

these correctibe EQs and room simulations like sound id or VSX are great but device simmulation like phones, boomboxes, cars,...is not even close to what these actualy sound irl so for these things imo is still better to listen on actual devices than just go through simulated presets

The more systems you can test on, the better. The virtual monitoring stuff definitely speeds up that process.

I have a Yamaha hs8 and I feel they give inaccurate results when mixing. What is the best upgrade in a small 3m x 3m studio room ? 2 way or 3 way ? Which model ? I see you use totamix software in the background and on the Sonarworks it’s universal audio thunderbolt , do you use both interfaces together ? If so , how ? Would really appreciate your advise

Nice video. Question . Adam Audio A7V .what is that crazy dip at 1k . 10db , no way 😮

GIK Acoustics are awesome im also very happy

Now I understand why my ps8 gave me the perfect sound in my bedroom studio. 👍

First set I heard more rhythms a brighter sound. That is the higher tones from the drums. 2nd set I heard deeper sounds.

Is it okay to use free air speakers in home rather than car. And one more thing a full range speaker, will it work properly without enclosure (box) ?

@AudioUniversity

It’s important for a loudspeaker to have an enclosure. This will prevent the front and rear side from interfering with each other.

@@AudioUniversityOkay thank you for the response. I also think the same but car speakers doesn't comes with an enclosure, that is the problem and car speakers can help in saving some bucks😁😁. So as per you knowledge what kind of speaker and subwoofer is okay for home? Which can covers the house with quality audio.

My room is small,it has only 13 ft length,11ft breadth and 7ft height, so what is your suggestion sir? Which one is better for me?

Who cares, people say music will be made by AI and mixing/mastering by AI too so why bother?

I think the answer is different for everyone. For me, the reason to bother making music and mixing music is because I think it’s fun and challenging. Also, understanding how music I love was produced enhances my appreciation for it.

@@AudioUniversity And who's gonna buy 10k speakers if they don't make money out of it? 98% of people who buy studio monitors are working on audio. Also, if AI mixing exists why do I receive requests for 1k plus per song? Why are they so stupid to pay mixing engineers instead of using 40$ AI? Couldn't it be that although AI can make music and mix from previous inputs it can't think and analyze future trends, where the issues are, what a song needs, and which artistic direction to lead towards?

​@@BLACKLABEL405 You've been misled by the ai bubble. There is not going to be ANY "ai" that can mix or master a song, in a sense that is currently meant. AI is deprived of meaning and a marketing term for mathematical algorithm. Modeling the real world is so complex that it need a computing power of the entire world. It will NEVER work, at least in its current form, so nobody with the right knowledge is even thinking about leaving audio bcs of ai. I see you also writing comments about ai creativity --for that i strongly recommend you check out Emily Bender. This software that is called ai is not something that can be creative at all. It lacks the ability to realisticly extrapolate anything really. Its just interpolating existing data.

Cheers.
