I'm trying to apply for the student discount but ran into a technical problem. After uploading my documents and submitting the form, the screen went completely white. I didn't get any confirmation message on the site or any email confirming my application was received.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? How can I confirm whether my application was successfully submitted to SoundGym? The regular subscription price is currently a bit high for me, so the student discount would be a huge help!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
for me it was about a couple weeks. i think the peak master exercise helped me the most, i really started knowing my eq decisions a little bit after i started the workouts
Hey, just to let you all know you cannot trust the training you are getting here on Sound Gym. I was baffled by struggles with certain games, DB King in particular. So I decided to get scientific about it. I set up a test environment with a reference mic and SPL meter to measure the db differences. I found that most times the test equipment and the game matched, which is good...except there were a couple of instances that they DIDN'T. For example the question was -7db or -5db, and the test equipment actually showed a -9db drop in level. So since -7 was closer to -9 I chose -7 and per the game the answer was wrong. I opened a support ticket and their answer was that they do not see any need to investigate. I don't know about you but I have a pretty big issue with that. Since this place claims to be teaching and training site I feel they have a duty to provide accurate teaching and training. It 's like if you went to a gym and trained to lift 75 pounds and got to the point you could in the gym but then you go out in the real world and try to lift a 75 pound bundle of roofing shingles and can't. Then you test the weights at the gym and find out that some of them are incorrect and are not the weight that they claim. But the gym refuses to fix it. I'd pretty much label that gym a fraud since people are being give a false sense of reality and then sent out to the real world where their training fails them. It is up to you if you want to keep paying money to a place that does not prioritize accuracy.
The DB difference in the game is in the overall signal level of the entire recording, if you route the signals into your DAW, you can check yourself with your meters and see the difference is accurate. It is accurate for me when checking on the meters on my UAD console app.
The discrepancy that you are experiencing is likely because you are testing your speakers with an SPL meter. Besides any possible room modes, etc., this method of testing will give you different DB results depending on how loud you are actually playing the sounds through your speakers.
Interesting thing is that the post says it was on may 6th at 2:10 pm. also I'm extremely sad that I caught a cold, so I can't do pan girl or any other games rn
