Mixing Monitors

[Andrew Torres]

I need some monitors that are as flat as possible for mixing. someone who knows something tell me something.

[Grayson Flores]

what's your budget, m8
as flat as possible is $10k

[Asher Turner]

I'm pretty cheap so I would say max 500 per speaker. I just need something that I know will have me putting out good virsitile mixes if it sounds good on those speakers

[Brody Howard]

Spending thousands on high end monitors don't mean shit if your room's not up to scratch.
Room treatment is as equally as important as your monitors and how your final sound translates.

[Matthew Johnson]

I'd check out the following, even though a tad over budget when not on sale:
neumann kh 80 dsp / kh 120 (used
)eve audio sc 205
aps klasik
hedd 05 / 07
focal cms 50

[Jaxon Cruz]

would just Yamaha ns10 do the job?

can I get a quick rundown on what I should be doing to my room?

[Angel Kelly]

>ns 10
no. you wanted flat

-treat first reflection spots
-diffuse/absorb flutter echoes from parallel surfaces
-reduce rt60 to 0.2s on a band as big as possible but don't over absorb at a specific range

[Nolan Jackson]

The aim is to kill reflections and standing waves through absorption.
Obviously depending on your situation it's going to vary, but get yourself some foam panels for starters. Forget egg cartons, that bullshit.

[Caleb Ward]

not that guy but man, don't spend $500 on speakers if you dont even know what roam treatment is

[Carter Wood]

then teach me O-wise one

I just have heard people say that if you can get a mix to sound good on that, that it will translate well to mostly anything
