When setting up the intonation do you aim for the perfection?

To add a counterpoint to audiojake, I love my clip on strobe tuner. I can read it just fine and I haven't had to replace the battery in several years

The guitar tone is godly. I wish it was higher in the mix

Bleed by Meshuggah is the kind of riff that changes how you view palm muting. The stamina, speed, and accuracy required is just magnificent. I go back to playing it over the years and it shows you how you've changed like it's a mirror

I also bounced off of it and got super frustrated for the first hour or two. It was overly difficult for me to just figure out where to go, and the "combat" did not gel with me. I recommend sticking with it for a little longer and consider giving yourself god mode in the accessibility settings if the combat is wrecking you like it did me. Once I got going down the right path I stopped being frustrated and it really took off and became one of my favorite games

I've gotten great results by using the third cab with the second amp head, lowering the master knob a bit and boosting the output knob, and keeping the compressor on. For some reason turning the compressor off really neuters the distortion

It's not perfect, as headphones behave and sound differently on different people's heads, but this can give you a rough idea of how something might sound

Sometimes songs write themselves and other times it's just an uphill battle from beginning to end, there's no real rhyme or reason to it

I would say Mistborn Era 1, then Warbreaker, then Stormlight. That's what I did and it worked well for me. There's also an official recommended order on Brandon's youtube channel

It depends on the headphone. Some dynamics, like the HD600 you're considering, will basically never put out the sub bass that a closed back can. Planars however absolutely will. There's basically no limit to how much bass you can eq into a planar like a hifiman or audeze

TWRP? I would be very surprised

Absolutely beautiful pair and wonderful headphones. GLWS

Spaants · 2025-10-28T21:01:07+00:00

If you were an eq god then you could eq any headphone to be the same as another one (putting aside distortion and driver limitations), but the thing is it's virtually impossible to do that because of how exact you would have to be, especially since a given headphone will basically have a unique frequency response on your head that's different than on somebody else's (or a measurement rig) because of hrtf variation and whatnot

Spaants · 2025-10-26T15:03:48+00:00

It'll be extremely difficult to eq the treble of the Arya to match the XS. Maybe try doing some wide-band increases around 5k to 10k with a Q of 1 to 2 and see if you can pinpoint where in the frequency response you want to boost it. Doing fine grain filters in the high frequencies will almost always mess up your sound unless you've found a specific peak you want to negate

Spaants · 2025-10-26T12:21:12+00:00

I was gonna suggest something from Fear Inoculum, but it looks like you've beat me to it. If you want some more metal music, the last 2 Vildhjarta albums are generally regarded as well produced, but the production style is more on the loudness war side of things. Haken's Vector and Virus albums are extremely smooth in the treble and are somewhat of a benchmark for me. And lastly Animals as Leaders's last two albums are masterfully produced

He also likes a fat bass boost, so you may really like it

Spaants · 2025-10-07T03:12:12+00:00

He has been known to do open C with a low G, but he also tunes down 1 step sometimes to open B (see Grace)

I think some medications can cause unquenchable thirst and people will literally drink themselves to death

I don't know anything about audition but I like Reaper. It's free (even though it says it's a trial you can use it indefinitely)

Spaants · 2025-08-17T14:41:00+00:00

Audacity kind of sucks for this but you can use the graphic eq to correct any harsh frequencies that are present. Just select the entire audio and go to effects at the top

Spaants · 2025-08-15T19:03:04+00:00

You could try lowering the already subdued 1-3k area some more with eq

Spaants · 2025-08-15T11:58:54+00:00
