Emma’s Earbuds (headphones?)
Yes! I don't know if I said a brand on the pod, but I have a few different pairs, I'll list them below! One thing I always consider is active noise canceling versus passive noise canceling. Active noise canceling is what AirPods and similar headphones provide. This means they use specific frequencie

A cool guide to traveling like a pro
I can speak to this. I travel a lot for work, domestically and internationally. Most of these are crap advice. Only two items on here are good advice. Take pictures of your passport and have them accessible. You will pretty much never need them, but I do it anyway. And get a power bank. Charge it be

How bad the Air Pods Pro 2 are for mixing?
They’re terrible for mixing. The Bluetooth latency for the AirPod 2 alone makes them the worst of your choices. If that’s all you have then so be it, but Sony MDR 7506 headphones ($99) are superior in every way for production.

recently got my M4!
That’s a crazy ass eq but to each their own ig. I also just picked up my m4s and have been using the shit outa them. Traded my mdr7506’s for them and it was a steal. The Bluetooth and full cup swivel has got me using them so much more than my Sonys. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.

AirPod Pros for Voice Acting?
If you have an audio interface just get a pair of studio monitoring headphones. Right now I use the Sony mdr-7506 since I got them for free at school. They work pretty well for being from my school and I think they’d be worth getting. If you don’t have an audio interface to plug them into then I’d j

Should I buy the HD560s or HD620s as my first pair of audiophile headphones?
I've got the WH-1000XM5 too. If you're going down the route of looking for a DAC firstly ask yourself "Am I playing lossless FLAC or WAV files that merit the investment?" Secondly, ask yourself, "Am I likely to perceive lossless audio's benefits?" If so, go for it. If not, ask yourself "wouldn't a B

What's the deal with Lossless?
Dozens of times I've seen legit pros (especially soundboard people) wearing my good wired headphones. They're less than $100 but they are so so good. The Sony MDR7506. I bet you could hear the difference on those. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000AJIF4E
