Where do you listen/stereos

studio monitors sound kick butt but what system do you listen to music on ? I mostly end up testing and listening to music in/on my car stereo which is pretty **** boomy or and then an mp3 player. After years of music production I have to remind myself of the shear enjoyment of just listening...It would be cool if everyone i give my cd to had my monitors and listened at 24bit...he he

i agree.. but then it would be too easy!
no seriously, that is a million dollar question..
honestly, i think that the best reference for a final mix are the cones that you know the best (the one you're in use to) - and it doesn't have to be NS10 or Geneleck or whatever fancy..
i'm reading an interview to Tom Lord Alge, where he sais that he likes to make the final mix on a boombox and the volume is even quieter than the noise from the computer's fan.. now, i don't know if it's any true, but it gives an idea of how much personal is (and must be, i say) the mixing eviroment.
SO, again, i agree with you.. i personally like to listen the same tune i'm finalizing on 3 different systems: car, PC cheesy speakers and studio monitors.
and you know what? .. i'd never stop mixing! ..i always find something to fix or that could sound even better.. and sometime that's frustrating.. but i still love it!
keep rocking!

  • Where can you get the power cord for a 2012 airport express?

    Where can you get a power cord for a 2012 airport express or the equivalent? I couldn't find one in the online store.

    I'm sure the OP found his solution, but I wanted to share mine in case it helps some future seeker.
    There are a lot of brand new cords on eBay for less than $10 including shipping, which is way cheaper than the $39 stereo connector kit or an AC adapter from a retailer.  I just bought a used-like-new one for $5.50.
    The cord is made by Volex, part number APC7Q.  The Apple part number is M9573LL/A.  If the seller got it from the stereo adapter kit, they'll probably list it under MD836LL/A, which is the kit's part number.  I got the best search results on eBay using just the Volex part number.
    Best of luck!

  • Is there a way to turn off text messaging while you listen to songs/videos?

    I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a way to temporarily turn off text messaging while you are listening to a song or video? I find it very annoying that if I let someone listen to the videos on my phone - that while they are doing that and a text comes in - it shows up right on the phone for them to read it. This did not play out too well when my girlfriend was listening to it yesterday.(keep all smart comments to a minimum please, lol). Can you turn off texting while you listen and then turn it back on when you finish? Please say yes... Thanks

    Nathan, thanks for that info....I appreciate that. That makes a lot of sense (what you said about airplane mode) and seems to be a good feature. I had been told a couple of times by airline personnel to please turn off my phone.
    This seems to be the answer I was looking for. I just hope that it will still play in my car. I was finally able to find a Belkin Cable to connect it to to hear music. I have an auxillary port for it. That is where & when the trouble lies. When I am listening to the ipod portion - watching a video - and hearing the music come from my speakers in the car. All of a sudden, a text comes through and you can read it & it asks where you want to 'view' or 'ignore'. I'm gonna test it...

  • HT204370 If the movie says Audio is in English and Spanish, how do you listen to the Spanish audio?

    If the movie says Audio is in English and Spanish, how do you listen to the Spanish audio?

    Everyone does things a little differently. I love to "jam " along with iTunes ( or old Lp's) . Always have. That's where/how I've learned to play .
    I'm sure leonieDF is giving a proper way to jam along on a keyboard with an iTune. He blows my mind all the time with what he knows. Nuff respects to him !
    What I do is make a GB project I call "Jam With". I'll make several new tracks that are blank. Just has a few instruments named in the blank tracks. You can change those per song ...
    Because I'm not concerned about changing the pitch / key.... of the iTune or the tempo ... I can simply play along with it.
    Peace,

  • Zen Nano Plus Guys: Where Do You Get Your Mus

    I get mine off Limewire and I was basically told that it wouldn't work AFTER I purchased my brand new Nano Plus by the customer support guy. Where do you get your files from?

    I just got my Nano yesterday.. 4/29
    This is what I do:
    .Download the songs on Limewire
    2.Under the Library Tab on Limewire there is a button called "Explore". click on that.
    3. All of the songs that you have downloaded should show up when the folder pops up
    4. Open the Windows Media Player (if you dont have it u should get it) and go to the tab that says "Sync"
    5. Drag the files one-by-one onto "Items to Synchronize" on the Windows Media Player
    6. Once you are done, press "Start Sync" at the top.. it should work
    Now.. the only problem Im having is how to listen to all of my files. Ive downloaded 65 songs on here and its only playing 32 of them.

  • How many times do you listen to an album before the "___ listens to this" when friends see it?

    Hi, Sorry if I got the wrong board, I wasn't sure where to post this. Does anyone know how much you listen to something before Spotify tells your friends about it? Weirdly, when I'm browsing on a friend's account, a bunch of albums I listen to quite infrequently have my face on them, whereas some of the ones I listen to all the time don't seem to. This doesn't really bother me, but I was wondering if anyone knew any more about it :) Thanks

  • I just purchased a audio book from iTunes, where do I listen to it?

    I just purchased a audio book from itunes, where do I listen to it?

    You're postive this is an actual Audiobook, correct? If so, do this: Double tap the Home button, slide the last viewed state of each app shown up...not the app icon, the last viewed state. Tap the Home button when finished, then reset your phone: Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release...it show up properly now?

  • HT1349 When you buy an audiobook from iTunes where do you open it to hear it?

    When you buy an audiobook from iTunes, where do you open it to start reading it.

    If you download or sync an audiobook to the iPad then you can listen to it in the Music app - when their audiobooks on the iPad you should get an Audiobooks option under the More button at the bottom of the Music app.
    Note that audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so if you buy any directly on the iPad you may want to connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11) so that you can take a backup copy.

    I DO remember them but Apple chose to put them in Japanese and I can not change the language on Manage my Apple ID so I do not know if I made an error ,it threw me off , it was the wrong question Where did you fly to on your first Aiplane trip ? then I was unable to enter until 8 hours then called Apple Japan 4 times each time threy asked me would you like to speak with an English speaker,I said yes then they told me sorry today is Sunday no English speakers ,but they refused to speak Japanese, then I called 5th time and a kind guy could speak English we were on 1and 1/2 hours he got me to log in but the reset key chain could not be completed still pending.
    He said do not mess with that ! then I got a text from somewhere to reset 4 pins suddenly it was very strange I said to him that I got this pin this morning but it said you can use maximum 3 hours it had a UK number and I told him I do not like this and will not enter the code he said do not do it if it is from the UK and then I said to him ok you did a lot to help but we can not go any further ! and we cut of I went back to my computer to re do the ID but I found everything a mess so I call and a stupid sounding Japanese women with a squeaky voice came on I was calm at first and they want your phone number your IMEI number your iPhone serial number date of birth Address email address it takes 10 munutes to check then they ask what are you caling about so I try to explain my keychain is broken or problems with language security questions and can not change my pasword because the security question have failed me so it is ONE BIG HEADACHE AND I START I GET STRESSED she says Do want an ENGLISH speaker ,I say yes ,that guy i talked to earlier but I never got his name and first time I ever talked to him but they said he is not here so I said ok and then she said today is sunday so call back in the morning ,I said ,well ok in Japanese but they make you feel stupid because they do not want to speak Jap@anese with none natives and they are to busy,And they feel that I should not bother them ,then I say that Apple Japan is trying to refuse Apple foreign customers and then she wants to hang up and ask me to visit the shop ,but they are the same I have a very bad time with Apple Japan since they do not discuss software problems or security with customer meaning if you have a problem they ask you to come on a time 20 minutes max so they do hardware test and say you phone is fine then I say no I can not reset my ID they say you must call call centre so I am going around in circles ,When I call English it is usually Australia so if my problem is in Japan surely if do not want me to talk to them in Japanese and they ask me to call Australia but every time my call charge is expensive after asking them is this free because I have Apple care they say yes but when the call goes to Australia 0120 277 535 it might change to paid call so I call then I have to ask is this charging they say we can not give you that information ! so what can I do I have have been at the computer and phone all day on my day off work and in tre week I am so busy and can not use my phone I can not work without it ,this new technology for you ,they can not cope with the fact that the customer have problems yet they do not want to deal with us because they can not solve it and so it shows them to be useless they like to walk around in their cool tee shirts and retro shop but when it comes to functionality we are unwelcome they got the money so do not return because apple is perfect that nothing should go wrong .
    But it does somehow my English security answers do not work on a Japanese Question especialy if I did not choose that question I set  up the multiple choice In English and wrote the answers in English or Roman and set them langauge preferences in English, do you really think you can correctly write english name or word in Japanese they write a police patrol car  pato caa パトカア they do not have r and l .So it is my choice to make my security easy for me and as difficult for others to hack.But they also have patororoo choo meaning ' now patrolling ' so why they have pato caa patrol car and patoro patrol and have thousands of Chinese words kanji they can find patrol.
    I am getting off the topic but I am at a loss to fix this problem when they hold the keys and i have all the info to verify my ID.

  • Where would you check performance of webi? query is taking long time to run

    Hello All,
    In the bex query world running on portal you were able to go to sm50 and check what the query is doing and where it is taking a long time or atleast you were able to see the processes runing.
    Where would you check the running processes when you are running a webi query, we are trying to write a webi report which is on universe which is created on bex query. The report is very simple just two fields and an mandatory variable which is coming from bex query (have defined the variable in bex query). When we exeute the query it is taking a long time just spinning and I am not getting any data back, on the same query before even hitting the run query button, I am trying to put a object in query filters and set the filter as In list from Value(s) from list and it is taking forever to set that filter.
    Can we go to CMC or BW backend and check anywhere we are using sap authentication, I see the number of sessions in CMC but that is it.
    Thanks for help in advance.

    Thank you both for the replies.
    How would I get the MDX that is generated by the query, I remember there is a note for starting the MDX logging. Can you please let em know how would I get the MDX statement. Thanks.
    Gowtham - What is the optimal array fetch size that needs to set for the universes, can you explain bit more about array fetch size?
    All our universes are on BEx queries designed in SAP BW in that case does the array fetch size matter and array bind size matter? I had read this in oneof the universe designer manuals for OLAP universes The Array fetch size, Array bind size, and Login timeout parameters are not used for OLAP connections
    Thanks again for replies.

  • HT1677 Where can you set default in Safari to view as web page instead of Mobile Version?

    Where can you set the default setting in Safari to open page as web page instead of Mobile Version on iPad running iOS6.01?

    And, to make it even more fun, sometimes a website changes how it deals with Safari Mobile. A website that treated it like a desktop browser suddenly starts treating it like a cell phone. Just to mess with you. Or push an app.
    Best of luck.

  • How can you listen to music and play a game at the same time?

    How can you listen to music and play a game at the same time?
    I am playing music, by starting the Crash Baandicoot Nitro Kart 3D game it shuts off the music playing. Is there a way around this?
    It seems like this should be possible.

    Select the music play list you want to listen to and start it playing. Go back to the home screen and start the app you want to use, music will stop. Press the home button two time quickly and it will bring up a simple control for controling the music. This works for me with all of the apps I have purchased including games. Just a note you can pull up the same music control if the iPod is a sleep and locked by pressing the button three times quickly.

    You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    You should still have your profile folder, so when you install 3. you will get your bookmarks and other user data back.
    There is a third party version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
