Are bass traps and acoustic treatment really necessary for achieving a mix that translates outside of your studio?

When it comes to low-end management, it’s a never-ending battle.

Especially when trying to cram a busy drum track, fat bass tone, multiple guitar layers, and a million vocal tracks together.

Things can sound killer on your monitors, but the second you take your mix out to your car or home stereo…all of a sudden your mix can be unrecognizable.

If you’ve ever researched this problem, I’m sure you’ve come across the myriad of articles and videos telling you that you need to “treat your room”.

But what does that actually mean?

The rabbit hole of room treatment can be even more overwhelming than the rabbit hole of gear and plugins.

It’s important for us to learn what actually matters and makes a real difference when it comes to acoustic treatment.

So let’s get to the bottom of this whole room treatment and bass traps thing and hear from an actual expert on the topic.

I’m excited to share with you my in-depth interview with Jesco of Acoustics Insider.

Jesco is an expert on the subject of acoustics and teaches busy music professionals (like you and me) about acoustic treatment that actually works in the real world.

He gives us the straight facts without all of the voodoo so we can get back to having fun and making music in our studios.

Pop some popcorn, sit back, relax and enjoy this in-depth interview with Jesco of Acoustics Insider.
