I'm definitely no expert, but various sources I've seen over the years seem to indicate that room treatments are a better solution than EQ.

There's a bit of an explanation near the end of this article, although I've seen it explained better than this somewhere.

Thank you for the input, but as I clearly said, my problems are happening before the sound reaches the room, so the logical choice is to fix them where they happen.

This is my result (Smoothed to 1/2 octave.)
Would you say that the next step is to create a parametric EQ roughly opposite this and use it on the master while mixing?

Turns out that it's not really my room, as much as my monitors that are horribly off.
While I could buy new monitors, I think I'd rather EQ my existing ones (they're pretty, and hand-made).
My speakers aren't too far off; they're salvageable with EQ. I could knock out the natural sound of the room at the same time.
I made a simple EQ in my DAW, and it sounds wonderful. I want it to always be like that, though, not only when I'm working on music. So I think that I'm going to buy a hardware EQ to put between my master output and speakers.
I've been looking at:
This looks ideal for my purposes, and the feedback detection mite b useful
(Alto Brand) More expensive, is it worth it?
(Peavy Brand) More expensive, is it worth it?
(Nady Brand) More expensive, is it worth it?

This should solve a lot of my mixing problems, not to mention that given some quiet time before performances, I could make an EQ setup for the given room/hall.

I recently started using buttplugs at rehearsals. Should've done that way earlier.
Protecting your ears late in the game sounds like a theme. 90% of producers and musicians are in some way shape or form deaf.

I've never actually done that. I prefer my music at reasonable volumes. Like, quiet enough to talk over, even.

Response to: Acoustics -- You're Doing It Wrong Posted February 5th, 2013 in Audio

Thank you for making this post! It's written excellently.

I've already done some work to make this work for me, but I haven't placed any sound absorbing pads or whatever, because I actually like the natural space of my music room, being more or less gigantic.

That's probably stupid, but whatever. I have some questions about your post.

Don't put [you computer] up against a window.
____But why? The wall I want to put it against has a large window right in the middle, I love to be able to see outside whle I work.

Second, get those speakers off the desk.
___My desk is actually very large and standing-height, so they're positioned perfectly, is there any other reason to not have them sit on the desk, or is that just because most desks are low?

Put small amounts of them at every major reflection point.
___How does one find out what the "major reflection points" are?

REQ is free for christ sakes.
___Link please? No Google search that I tried brought it up.

Find out how your room sucks, and build an EQ to toss on a master buss and fix that shit until you are ready to export, then take it off.
___If I mixed it to be neutral as compared to my room, then shouldn't I leave it on, actually? Taking it off seems like it might mess things around at the last second, especially since I rarely EQ anything in my tracks, aside from subtractive EQs here and there.

i guess for people who do it as a hobby a midi keyboard, a pair of speakers and a monitor (ofc a computer) will suffice.

Doing all of this would cost less than a basic DAW like Fl Studio. But then again, most people on NG probably stole that, too.

Or certainly something that is more true during puberty, cause we were all little shitbags then. While hormones tend to make guys hornier then it just made us girls pissier.

I can't speak for other people, but I would say it's completely a myth.

Nope.
While I don't think it's possible to become the other gender literally, I have nothing against transsexuals, I don't mind what they're doing.
But to widen the scope a little, what about people with physical sexual abnormalities?
Say, intersexed people? Is it logical for them to change themselves to one extreme or the other? Is it okay to choose the extreme farther from them? Is the 'correct' sex for them defined by which they most outwardly resemble or by their genitalia?
