How awesome would it be to be able to mix and master music professionally on HEADPHONES instead of studio monitors? Is that even possible?

That is what this video is all about. It's a simple experiment that I performed to see if I could master music as well on headphones as on my studio monitors in my professionally tuned and treated studio.

And the results are REALLY surprising!

I dive deep into all the latest headphone software technology that can be used to fix EQ problems with headphones and also create a better sonic image inside your headphones to help with mixing and mastering decisions when using headphones. The products that I will be using in this video are:
👉 Sonarworks (EQ Correction): https://bit.ly/3AUM29G
👉 dSONIQ - Realphones (EQ Correction + Image Enhancement): https://bit.ly/3J6acC7
👉 Waves - CLA Nx (EQ Correction + Image Enhancement): https://bit.ly/3f3cowH

I remastered the SAME song 7 times using different headphone software to see which software helped me make better mastering decisions.

I then compare it to the master I did using my studio monitors to see if maybe.... just maybe.... this software can level the playing field between working on headphones and studio monitors.

While I did my best, this experiment has its obvious flaws which I discuss in the video. But regardless, I hope that the results inspire you to try some of these products out on your songs. Just be sure to come back and post in the comments about your experience and results!!!
