HA, the mix should translate well, since I checked a lot with my 880 ProsThis is why I checked everything with my DT 880s
@Dave, I heard that too about the harshness, a friend of mine even switched to Senn HD400s because of that. It was always puzzling to me as I always found them to have a really nice and warm, almost huge character but without being muddy or pushing the low mids too much. So quite the opposite of harsh They're also very "airy", as sometimes you're not even aware of listening to them. Once I thought "I should listen to my 880s again", while doing so.
You can tell I like em! A lot!
@fese
I definitely come back at you, but I'm out of town until sunday because of work.
But I can answer how I made it work:
I pushed that one red button on my secret plugin Sorry, couldn't resist.
There are really no secrets. First of all balancing, then balancing, after that I balanced some more. Then the usual: eq, compression, modulation, delay, reverb. It's all about perspective and relationship. What's huge, what's small, what's important and what's not... When you have done all the eq, compression and so on, rebalance. But I guess that's how everybody is doing it here anyways, so sorry for a very lame answer. But I will share my vocal chain when I get home, maybe that will be of some use.
@Compyfox, should I do that here or via PM? I don't wanna exploit a threat and I'm still not that good in forums
Cheers
Mork
