I am trying to mix something, just as good a quality as I can get. I had problems last time with headphones being very innacurately bass heavy, leading to the mix being overly harsh tinny. I don't have any 'real' monitors the closest I have is the built-in monitors on a Korg C4 cassette 4-track. I also have a cheap boom box, a set of crusty computer speakers that sound very midzy, and a Roland KC350 keyboard amp (which obviously will just be mono).
Lacking any real monitors, what would the best way to use this pile of assorted stand ins to get at least close to something that is a balanced mix? I have so far tried using each one separately, and tried combining them all. The result of having all of them going was actually really nice sounding; Too nice sounding I am worried about, like I know I am being lied to by my speakers.
Has anyone had to use stand-ins for monitors? Which would be the best of this stuff to do this with?
