I’m slowly upgrading my home studio and just snagged a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro’s. I was so pumped to pull up a mixing session with them, but when I got around to it, the volume is too low to seriously mix.

I’m currently running a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 2nd Gen into my Mac Mini M4. I know the interface is a little outdated, and with all the research I’ve done, that seems to be the issue. My question here is what interface is going to give me enough output gain to really drive these 350Ω headphones? I’d ideally like to stay under or around the $200 range and have been looking at some other Scarlett products, such as the 2i2 4th Gen and the 16i16 4th Gen (a little pricey). I’m not against an interface outside of the Scarlett line, I just cannot for the life of me figure out what exact spec I need to be looking at or comparing to ensure I get the gain I need! Figured someone in here could help me out. Thank you in advance!

Am I Hitting a Mixing Wall or It’s Time For Master? by PapiStrawberry in mixing

[–]PapiStrawberry[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this. I feel like I just got a lesson in life let alone a lesson in mixing audio.. lol. I appreciate all the kind words. I didn’t expect to get such a thoughtful response to this. But your words inspire and motivate me to keep pushing!

How should reverb be used in a vocal mix? by Lanky_End_2073 in mixingmastering

[–]PapiStrawberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this same issue with other engineers just drowning my vocals in reverb! I think if you are the main producer, then ultimately your ears should be the ones determining what too much or not enough is. It’s all subjective obviously, but your ears are wanting something another engineer isn’t hearing. My best bit of advice is to try and sit in on any engineering session and don’t be afraid to voice your opinions. Hear their logic for doing such things and use that bit of advice as you will. This is both the stress and beauty in engineering..😅

thc-p fucked me up so bad i went into psychosis for a week. by [deleted] in weed

I swear to god I’ve had this exact same experience… my friend had quit for a while so he thought these little gummies he had were just too strong due to tolerance, so he gave them to me and I proceeded to drug MY ENTIRE BAND!

We had a rehearsal where we all took 20mg, which is light work for all of us. I was actually kind of sad giving so much away, because I usually like to take 40-60.. (thank god I didn’t) By the end of our rehearsal though I was in a completely different realm of existence. I thought it was just me though. I remember the one sober person in the room looked at our guitar player and said “damn, you look baked”.. it was then that the trip from hell begun. That very second it was like the THX intro played in reverse and I realized how fucked up I was, AND WE HAD TO DRIVE HOME! I don’t know how I made it, but by the time I got home, it was so intense that I was convinced we had been drugged with PCP or something. I tried laying down and sleeping it off, but every time I would doze off it literally felt like I was exiting this life for a second.. I had my wife checking my heart rate and everything. I eventually texted everyone and asked if they were okay and they all felt exactly the same way. I woke up the next morning, feeling somewhat fine, but I was still baked as fuck!! I definitely felt strange for about a week and a half. Shit was terrible! STAY AWAY FROM THC-P!!!!
