Just how good are my ears? It's something I think about once in a while when mixing and producing so in this video I decided to challenge myself with some audio training games and also discuss ear training and frequency perception skills. Follow along and see if you can guess better than I did in these challenges.
This video is not sponsored by SoundGym - it's just a fun place to do these challenges :)
I do believe that the most wholesome way of developing your listening skills is to make a lot of music / do a lot of mixes and keep listening to a lot of music that you love, however, these sorts of audio challenges did help me identify some weak spots in my hearing and I also thought it was a lot of fun!

Michael's voice is so calm and soothing and very relaxed. It makes the production tutorials a lot more easier to understand and I consider them more fun in a way. Loudness, fast speaking and memes like other producer RU-vidrs isn't always the best for me, sometimes calm, relaxing and slow speaking is the best. Much love to you my dude

@marianudo2 4 года назад

Insightful video!! I’ve been training intermittently but consistently for a year on soundgym, and went from an overall 63 percentile to the (overall) 97.6 percentile. I’m really bad at EQ but quite strong at compression and distortion recognition. So as a living proof of it I agree it is possible to not only improve but also master this stuff. It’s just a matter of putting in the hours, and I’ve found on soundgym a very interesting tool to intensively workout those basic mixing skills and make faster progress when we start and are kind of tone deaf still. I’ve also seen even faster growth / improvement doing everyday both soundgym and actual mixing work. For some of us mastering this craft will take longer than for others (I double Mike’s age and cannot hear anything above 11KHz), but definitely we all could get there eventually.

Great video! Inspiring honesty about yr start in this business for people in the same boat now. Also I love the warning at the end. To all beginners out there! Very important that advice. Preserve your ears at all costs! I went to a west end musical over the weekend. Should have taken ear plugs! Sitting next to a small raging infill speaker! Whilst everyone was standing clapping along to the final medley the kids voices between 2khz - 7khz were killing me. Within 1 sec i had my fingers in my ears and sat down to take cover till it had finished. If you come out of a club and yr home in bed wondering what that noise is in yr ears still. That's hearing damage. You should always wear ear plugs to clubs and loud events. Just someone shouting in yr ear in a loud environment can do quite severe damage too. Keep up the great videos! :-)

@tiggerdyret 5 лет назад

I've bought Syntorial and gone through it and even though it is for synths and sound design it is also the most powerful ear training software for mixing. You ears get exposed to a lot of different sounds and characters and learning to hear the details of the sound is critical to get through the lessons. Even though they didn't have a compression module I could hear attack and release times after I'd gone through Syntorial.

@zugrath16 5 лет назад

I love syntorial but it feels like a program made for "sound design" rather than "mixing"

@lucmermans37 3 года назад

Wow absolutely amazed by how you just nailed that first game, I just came from another video of a mixing engineer who tried this and just got them all wrong lol.

@MaartenFranken 5 лет назад

With Quiztones I can compare before and after and hear the difference. Only being able to hear the processed version without knowing what the original is means you have to guess half of the factors you need for comparisson. Its a calculation, 'processed version' - 'original' = 'the difference'. Learning this skill is about recognising the difference, which is not possible. You have to make a calculation with 2 unknown factors out of 3... Maybe a good excercise for someone who's been doing this for years, but not for learning the skill, if you ask me.

@MelvinStanly 5 лет назад

Just a question from an amateur. I have seen all your tutorial videos and some videos are new to me such that I don't understand anything. Because I haven't considered about frequency levels, peaks etc. I have seen too many courses offering music technology and audio engineering. Most of them are 6 month, some are 1 year and others are 1.5 year long. So on seeing your videos and theories I am confused about the course length. Do you recommend or have any idea which course should be selected based on length ? Is there any other criteria which should be inspected before joining a course ? I have tried to learn my own and have failed. So can you give me an advice ? I promise you that someone will also benefit from your reply.

@inthemix 5 лет назад

Online courses or in music academies? If a course doesn't get you making music and working with gear from day 1 and doesn't provide a clear path into a job, it's pretty much worthless. From the experience of thousands of people who have emailed me or messaged me over the years!
