Hey guys, heads up! After some work I've managed to do 6 panels and two big cubical bass traps, two corners (kind of triangular my room), windows and sides covered, the difference is astonishing!! Feels like a reverb layer was removed, and the stereo field became a lot more clear, like I could see the mix almost, like an outdoor party with a bad ass funktion 1 PA. The mix of my track is still sounding good so I'm just correcting some stuff, no more bass insomnia but it's only obvious how it will affect sound design decision. Low end mid-lows are a lot more evident so good bass n kick combos should take less than 3 weeks next time Thanks!

Thanks for the article, it was eye opening. I read a lot about it myself, but the tone and arguments were crucial. Time to stop being an idiot and invest in some more traditional techniques! I order some wool Rockwool WLG 040 100mm, not sure if it's the equivalent but hey, I'm still an idiot , and manage to find some guy selling 5 packs of sonorock rockwool for a really good price, just got to get a car and get it Im gonna give it a go and see! Maybe Ill get Arc later. You can still tell the reference sounds great, but you can't see why, I'm conviced this will improve my blindness 100%, the insulation that is. Enough of white walls!

Hey everyone! I've been reading this thread a lot. Cool to see everyone trying to get "there" in numerous ways. I'been going down the rabit hole for a couple of weeks now, enjoying it actually but I'm getting a bit paranoid. The track was finished but kick and bass were needing work and so does now all else. Lets say it's the start of the final mixdown. My conclusion is that most of the problem relies on getting the low end right and tight, which I find very hard to do, across genres. What I wanted to ask is if anyone has tried this stuff out using ARC 2.5 or Reference 3, Subpac M2 or S2 and if you got better noticeable results faster? Terranoise uses ARC 2 in some producing sessions on YouTube. I friend of mine says it's great. The subpac might help to perceive better low end and low mids and make it easier to work it. I use a ref track, a monitor, one normal stereo system, laptop speakers, studio and normal headphones. I've been thinking of aquiring one of the tools I mentioned for almost 2 years now but a part of me tells me that it might not be all that helpful, the same part that's sure that Dave Pensado will nail the low end better than me and faster with laptop speakers even if I'm using the best studio with the best tools money can buy. Cheers!
