Hi everyone.

Hey all,

I've been slow coming to the age of digital recording, so please assume minimum knowledge on my part, despite that I've copiously read all my manuals and watched YouTube videos 'til my brain is mush.

Slightly confusing issue (to me at least!) regarding audio and a cable change. I would really appreciate any help on the cause of the following problem and any offers of how to fix in FCP.

Test 1 has the problem and test 2 is fine.

Ok so I've had some Beyerdyamic headphones which I really like. The one problem is that I accidentally broke off the tip of the trs. In order to fix it I have to swap the the entire cable, which the company could do it for $50. I was wondering if anyone knows of how or where to find out how to fix this myself as opposed to shipping them off and paying a hefty price for such a simple fix.

Hey guys what's going on?

I'm curious to know what kind of headphones you guys use to mix, or thoughts on some great headphones to mix with.

Hey,

I was wondering, how do you really get to know your headphones for mixing?

A very dear friend and co-engineer of mine in Austin, got a pair of these some time ago and kept bugging me to get a pair for my room. The headphones in question were the Product: Grado Labs Alessandro Music Series

I have 6 outs on my headphone amp.
Looking for a total of 6 headphones for my middle school recording studio.

I think I want to get 2 pairs of the Vic Firth Isolation headphones.

I am looking for 3 pairs of headphones for tracking, hopefully in the price range of 20 to 30 US dollars.

Also, I need one pair for mixing, with a budget of 50-60.

OK, so I'm learning about the home recording process and on Tuesday I will be doing my first session. I believe I have the recording equipment side of things right. Now, the issue of the listening device comes up. The store I've been buying equipment has lots of different headphone brands and so on. Headphones seem to be the standard for recording purposes. Why? What's wrong with earphones?
