If you want to analyze probelms of your room, use this http://www.roomeqwizard.com/. It's free.
It's a different thing to analyze your mix meters in digital level. So remember that most important is to listen. Meters are good to warn you that ”your low-end might have some issues”. No meter will tell you if you have made too deep cuts to vocal mid-range or to solo-instrument. Recently you have had that kind of problem. I guess you have been fixing with too strong tools and it has caused shrinked mid-range feeling. With lower listening levels I personally find it easier to detect such problems.
I think that the main aspect of reference cd
is to refresh one’s ears, to remind brains what is natural sound and natural balance for the chosen genre. That’s why it’s nice to have couple of different high quality references at the same time playing in your DAW in the same level as your mix. It prevents you from not to mimic too much another sound that cannot be forced to the chosen multitracks.
And remember, these are just thoughts from another forum fellow who is fighting with similar problem. So be critical and listen also what other’s with better ears and knowledge says.
