Audio engineer here: Worst time in my life was trying to mix on M-Audio speakers early in my career... Get used BW DM-601 HiFi Speakers and a decent HiFi amp to go with them. Get some thick copper cables to connect them. DONE. Closest thing to a hi class studio monitor setup I have found used for around 200 bucks.

What do you think about krk rokit g4 5'

@RapidFlow_Shop Месяц назад

@@AnkitKumar-zd4ms The 5" KRK s are quite good, found them to be useable monitors. Dynaudio BM5A (!) and ADAM A7X are better though if you can spring it...

@nicolasalonso580 Месяц назад

⁠@@RapidFlow_Shop I produce EDM music for the most part and I’m planning to buy the KRK Classic 5’s, any thoughts on those?

@RapidFlow_Shop Месяц назад

@@nicolasalonso580 They re good for the price, but in order to hear the low end of EDM you are better served with headphones. I use Slate VSX in combination with the Mike Dean room and have gotten amazing results. I know it s not inexpensive, but this would be my absolute recommendation over entry level speakers. Making music is much more fun when your mixes translate well... BTW I currently have no affiliation with Slate :)

@@RapidFlow_Shop Gotta "disagree" on the Adam's , I find the highs getting silky smooth whatever you do :P sounds good but I dont like how they translate. Dynaudio is okay :)

Nice review as always, Edward. Nice monitor for the budget. I spotted an Audient Interface on your desk. Is it any good as far as clean and quality sound is concerned? I am planning on setting up a stud. soon.

@CartelStacks 2 месяца назад

Almost got one myself till I did tons of research. In conclusion I purchased the Solid State Logic SSL2+. Even the employee at Guitar Center said it's the best in his opinion. I love it, but it's completely up to you in the end.

@johannjohann6523 Месяц назад

Shoot both sound good. With the M-Audio speaker having a bigger and more rounded low end. The M-Audio speakers also had a more forward soundstage than the Presonus. But are not the Presonus about $50 cheaper a pair? Either way, I don't think you can go wrong with either speaker. Like them both, but the bigger woofer gives M-Audio the edge I think.

@lehoangmanh2301 2 месяца назад

edifier mr4 or neumi bs5 maybe a better choice than m audio or presonus. Or maybe a pair of old JBL 305p is best bang for buck.

@myke_vinz 2 месяца назад

It's crazy how the Presonus Eris 3.5's sound very close if not almost the same in terms of the frequency response 😱😵🔥🔥🔥. Presonus is legendary🔥and the 3.5's are a classic and it's amazing how they can compete with other monitors in the same category and with bigger and supposedly better studio monitor brands 😱😵. I would definitely get them instead of the M-Audio studio monitors and many others in the same category 💯

@paypachasa 2 месяца назад

I really like the punch of the m-audio! I got a pair 3 years still going no problem at all!

@micturner_9167 2 месяца назад

Yea they are punch too. Wit the bass in the middle and the treble at the top. Away from the walls. They sound great. Absolutely zero room treatment. (L-shaped room)

@JoseCastillo-ol8eh Месяц назад

The highs simply predominate in the presonus, if you go live to the place you will definitely choose the m audio.

not sure why that cone looks fake as the ones here in Australia are Kevlar, but they are call BX5 D3

I find the E 3.5s are too quiet and blow too easily. Ive blown 2 pairs over 2 years. I dont run them all too loud, but everyone has played an insturment in ableton thats way louder than you think its goint to be.

@peterhughes8699 2 месяца назад

I wouldn't buy these monitors - or any monitors. Home amateur recordists don't need them imo. You can get equally good mixing results with 2 different and good quality headphones. Save your $$ guys and forget monitor speakers

@jackrowe5146 2 месяца назад

I like having the option of listening to how my stuff sounds in a room :) sometimes it’s handy for collaborations too. Hearing things through monitors is important too imo!

@---pp7tq 2 месяца назад

Make mixes on headphones, but check them on monitors you can trust as well. Car test can be even more requiring.

@billweaver2549 25 дней назад

There are numerous problems/dangers with mixing only on headphones. Frequently when I used to do it I'd make mixes that sound great but they didn't sound good when I had the chance to listen on monitors. However mixes that sound good on monitors still always sound good on headphones. Minimum if working on headphones is check your mix in mono. If it sounds good in mono it will sound good in stereo, but often mixes that sound good in stereo, *especially* on headphones where each ear is isolated from the other, fall apart in mono. What you hear in headphones is not how we hear sounds in the real world.
