When I listen to my recordings, I can hear the room sound or natural reverb of the instruments when I listen through headphones. I use those new Bose noise-cancellation cans. However, I can't hear that reverb in the Mackie HR824 monitors.
I think I have a pretty dead monitoring room. I have bass traps in the corners and high and medium frequency absorption on the walls. The floor is wood. The ceiling is acoustic tile. I plan to put some 3" Rockwool absorption for the ceiling. I also have a fouton behind the listening position that ought to be helping to kill some low end.
I typically use a combination of nearfields and cans for monitoring. I am listening for something obviously messed up from either source. I guess I am just surprised that I can't hear that room verb in the Mackies.
Could somebody offer a hypothesis on what is going on?
