Question:
hey jf- while making music via computers or hardwares..people often advise "use your ears" over "use your eyes"? question= have you ever done a session blindfolded..to "see" how that turns out in practice?? (some musicians ARE blind from birth of course) =)

I haven't done anything blindfolded, but when mixing sessions I definitely don't look at units or ratios or attack times or track meters much, and just tweak them til I like them. The exception is that I do look at the LUFS meter on the main outs to see if I'm near where I want to be as far as loudness.

having both senses we use them both being able to...its quite difficult to go with modern "loudness" scales without calibrated loud speakers & introducing some kind of distortions we find..(pleasing or not) -12lufs can sound a bit crunchy with acoustic guitars & some stringed instruments & gauging loudness can be more to the eyes than ears sometimes, but not all...its a tricky balancing act between loudness over 'acceptable' distortions ioo...ta.

Do you change the "Meter" setting from "Combined RMS" to "LUFS" in your master track? Or do you look at the LUFS meter somewhere else?
