[QUOTE="Eric Cagle, post: 97305, member: 277"] Re: Mixing live tracks: headphones or monitors I got used to mixing somewhere between 90db and 95db depending on the style of music and always doing a final check on the big monitors at around 100db. I don't remember ever changing anything after the check but it has been a long time. I did do periodic checks for bass content before the final mix though. I always had to work to get the mix sounding good on the NS10's and listening to the Westlake's was always a pat on the back. The Westlake's were like turning on a light switch as far as being able to hear EVERYTHING. I could hear all kinds of subtle things and details and really appreciate the content but the relative balance was always perfect coming off the Yamaha's and the mix always sounded better on any decent system.
