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.

Which headphones should I buy?

Do not get wireless headphones. You cannot properly sync audio and video with wireless headphones. Media industry standard is usually some version of the Sony MDR-7506

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.

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.

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

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

What Are The Best Headphones to Buy For Gaming and Editing?

Sony MDR7506 $100, long cable, extra durable, excellent sound even at high volume. I use these to game, edit, play drums and guitar. They do it all. Nearly an industry standard, once you learn what these headphones look like you'll start seeing them everywhere. I own 3 pairs.
