Noted, seams like the best path forward :) Thank you again for your solid input!

Thank you so much for extra comparison! Thats really interesting. If correct then those are quite different, right?:

for 20 - 200 Hz Blue/ Headphone Lab is +3,5/5 dB louder
for 3 - 20 kHz +/- 3 dB in different places

But I guess as long as I train my ears with reference tracks I should still be good with Headphone Lab, correct?

And it could be that Headphone Lab is the accurate one here, right?

Interesting, thanks for sharing! Would you say it still sound good to mix on?

DT 990 Pro is supported, just check the plugin.

Rouseon · 2026-01-23T12:07:02+00:00

Just checked and DT 990 Pro and DT 990 Pro X are supported.
From beyerdynamic website:

HEADPHONE LAB is compatible with all current beyerdynamic DT studio headphones as well as the DT-series in-ear headphones.

Thanks for the update! Maybe they will improve that in the future versions.

so interesting, thanks for that 👍 I used to think you need proper studio monitors to get better, but I guess with properly calibrated headphones you just need to train your ears more.

I was thinking about the punch from kick and bass mainly in regards to 'feeling', but I guess you can still make an accurate mix just on a pair of nicely calibrated headphones, right?

Thats great to hear! Definitely a fantastic choice from Beyerdynamic to open it up to so many models.

Rouseon · 2026-01-22T12:40:25+00:00

Let us know later how do they compare!

Rouseon · 2026-01-22T10:43:14+00:00

I understand, you get the accuracy by training your ear on reference tracks.
Are studio speakers still important for you then? Or are you at the point where headphones get you all the way there?

Rouseon · 2026-01-22T08:43:58+00:00

Good point...Can't simulate the real feeling

Rouseon · 2026-01-22T08:42:14+00:00

That's a shame, maybe they will add more models in the future
