So I know that this is not recommended at all.
But. I've read some discusssions about monitors and importance of quality etc. (here and on other forums.)
Something that often comes up when talking about having to mix on cheap/inaccurate monitors is "learn your monitors", "listen to a lot of music through your monitors so you know how things should sound" and so on.
To my question: Why do most people say you should avoid mixing in headphones? Wouldn't the exact same advice be fitting for this?
Learn your headphones, listen to a lot of other music through them so you know how things should sound. At least on headphones you won't have the room to worry about.
I'm guessing since this doesn't come up much, there's something I'm overlooking.
No?
