FAQs
What's the difference between studio monitors and regular speakers?
Studio monitors are specifically designed for accurate sound reproduction in a studio setting with the goal of providing a flat and trustworthy frequency response allowing you to hear your mix in as much detail as possible. Regular speakers, on the other hand, are often designed to enhance certain frequencies for a more exciting listening experience, which can be misleading when creating, mixing or mastering music.
How do I choose the right studio monitors for my needs?
Consider your room size, budget, and the type of music you'll be working with. Smaller monitors are ideal for compact spaces, while larger monitors offer more low-end extension and headroom. Our experts can help you select the perfect pair of monitors to suit your specific requirements.
What are the benefits of using headphones for monitoring?
Headphones offer isolation from room acoustics, allowing you to focus on the finer details of your music. They are also portable and a more affordable option than studio monitors, making them a great option for on-the-go producers or those with limited space.
What are open-back vs. closed-back headphones, and which are better for studio use?
Open-back headphones offer the listener a more natural and open listening experience, providing greater detail and the added perk of experiencing less ear fatigue due to the open nature of the ear cup design. One drawback is that they leak sound at levels that are easily audible outside of the earcups, making them a less ideal option when recording vocals or working in noisier environments. Closed-back headphones provide better isolation from external sound and as a result, you hear a more direct and punchier sound profile. This makes the closed-back perfect for vocal recording and contained listening experiences on-the-go with minimal sound leakage.
