    got a pair of avantones, been thinking about it for years... used them before but just wasn't prepared for how shitty they would make my mixes sound. just finishing up an e.p. this week and quickly made some mix adjustments through them (30 mins per track). A/Bing the before/after is unreal. best studio purchase of recent times...

    i remember someone else got a pair on here a while back? auto? how are you finding them?

    • muller brockmann monitor riser also highly recommended.kingsteven
    • yeah i got a single one.. given you are supposed to mono the signal seemed pointless buying 2.. definitely rate it.. although to be honest i dont use it asautoflavour
    • much as i should.. but that says more to my attention span than my mixing.. but everytime i have used them, there is always a definite difference..autoflavour
    • what are you using as your monitors?autoflavour
    • i worked out a trick in ableton.. group a utility plugin to mono the signal and a external instrument plugin set to route to an output channel, then map a keyautoflavour
    • to toggle the rack on and off.. place it on the master and you can easily switch to the avantone .. i have it set to the asterisk on the number pad.. super easyautoflavour
    • Adam A7x as mains, they are really unforgiving in the HF, really improved my mixes so got the avantones to do the same for my mids...kingsteven
    • can always switch to mono... using the mixer to a/b atm. shopping for a monitor controller but they're $$$ :-/kingsteven
    • the rack on the master is super easy tho.. and quickautoflavour
    • mixing in Logic, figured i can use the monitor presets on my big focusrite to do it for now. going to try and fit my tannoys in here too so need 3 way switchin,kingsteven
