This ear training exercise will quickly improve your EQ and mixing skills. I do this almost every time I open a project and it helps me focus my processing and enjoy mixing. After suggesting this to hundreds of artists and clients, I thought it was time I just made a video about it!

Audio Ear Training is a Game-Changer! i"m a bit biased, but I truly believe that SoundGym is the best place to level of your mixing skills.
Great tip- thank you.
Question – Would it be better to use a reference track for this rather than one of my own? One that my ears will be 'familiar' with?
Thanks
Excellent, thank you so much!! 🙂
ITS REALLY WORKED LOL THANK YOU DUDE
I subscribed on my GF account to get this channel to 1M 🎉

working for today!!!
I've done something similar to this before but with just mindless sweeping. This is a much more effective way of doing it, great tips!
Respect ♥
Thank you
With Ableton EQ Eight, use Q=2.84 and turn off "Adapt. Q".
Details:
I was wondering why the difference was so difficult to hear with Ableton EQ Eight. So I installed a demo of Pro-Q 3 and it was much easier to hear the difference! After a bit of research, I discovered that a Q value of 1 in Pro-Q 3 is 0.71 in Ableton, so 4 as shown in the video becomes 2.84. Also, "Adapt. Q", which is on by default, adapts the Q value to behave like "classic analog EQ". With those fixes, the delta between a track filtered by EQ Eight and a track filtered by Pro-Q 3 is null.
And thank you Michael, I'm already starting to have fun already with gentle EQ changes 🙂
This channel will forever remain the holy grail of mixing tutorials
Great Video! Could you maybe do a hair styling tutorial next? Haha just kidding but your hair looks great
Im dying EQing my vocal, its been 3 months still cant get it right. I watch lots of your video but when doing it myself its super hard. Or might be im using 15$ microphone 😂 vocal is not that bright 😭.
Awesome tutorial! Btw what headphones are you using? Thanks 🙂
dude i absolutely love your content. I have been watching y'all for a couple of years just learning and i cant help but thank y'all for all the help y'all have brought.
You post videos of things I didn't know that I didn't know . What a great training exercise/warmup. Thanks again 🙂
I'm a Studio One guy, but your didactic approach helps in any daw. We all appreciate your generous help.
Good stuff
Bettee too much eq and later reducing than too less and not noticing!
Michael you’re the best . Just wowing here at the level of your intelligence. God bless you man
I wish u always a cool side on your pillow when you sleep for beeing such a good teacher to us!
Golden remark: The absence of a frequency tunes you in so much more than just trying to boost that frequency. This is exactly the opposite of what a novice such as myself does!🤔
This def works, but if you don't do it basically everyday, don't even bother. It's like being on a diet 2 days a week 😂
Excellent as always, really appreciate these concise videos. No fluff, straight to the point. Keep up the amazing work!
bro God bless you
I miss you
thank you
Fire def gonna try it out
