I'm trying to improve in the Kit Cut game (been a while since i had a pro sub).
Was wondering if any of you have some tips. I have practiced Peak Master quite a bit and feel like im pretty good at it. Basically by memorizing the character of how all the frequencies sound.
Now is there a similar tactic to learn Kit Cut? Because right now i have to turn the EQ off and on constantly where the game kindof turns into Peak Master. Not really sure if that's a very helpful way to approach it.
An approach that worked for me is, before even touching the EQ buttons, thinking about what frequency is missing, and then once I use the EQ button, making a mental note of how I was wrong. Of course, this will take time like John above me said. I attached a video of the approach I use from “The House of Kush.”
I feel like for me I hear it once I turn the EQ off because then I hear the missing frequencies jump out and can identify it that way. I'm assuming this isn't really the intended skill though, you're supposed to be training hearing what's missing, not the reverse, but I do feel like I'm still getting genuinely better at it with more training anyway... Maybe that's just from becoming more familiar with the samples though from other games or wholistically training my frequency recognition in general, but either way progress in the real world comes from general experience just as much as it does focused tasks, so if it works it works. I probably spend the most time on the Feedback Eliminator game so I can train pure frequency recognition, but I notice that after spending time on that I do better on the peak tasks so it's all connected. Also, unfortunately, sometimes advancing levels just comes from luck and how difficult of questions you get. Like in Feedback Eliminator, sometimes you get choices that are far spread apart so it's easy to tell it's the highest or lowest one, but other times you get a bunch of frequencies right next to each other and I have to guess more. Just don't worry about it too much and keep putting the time in, you'll improve one way or another. The games aren't all perfectly balanced, but working on them more and more will still help over time.
I am looking for tips on getting better at playing Distorted Reality. I struggle sometimes to hear a difference between the two options and just end up guessing the louder option. I do not have the best listening environment, but am looking for tips anyone uses besides focusing on the different frequencies. Any advice is much appreciated!
On some sounds it's easier to hear the distortion. Drums for instance. The distortion softens the transients. Once you start to hear that, you'll start to recognize it in other sounds. Just keep going. You will get better.
Often it is the one that has more perceived loudness, and the distortion/saturation is adding harmonics that make it louder. I have a similar issue where it is hard to hear, and one is definitely louder. when you hear that take more time, listen with your eyes closed and try to listen for more fullness, or softer transients (as Way called out). Having said that I need to take my own advice 😄
Hi everyone, I'm having trouble with the StereoHead and PanGirl exercises. It seems like there's no difference in aperture or panning between the different samples. I've tried it with headphones and speakers, but it's almost impossible for me to finish the exercises because sometimes between two samples I hear exactly the same thing, even though the two responses are completely opposite. I thought maybe I'm just not very good at it, but I do well on all the other exercises, so I find this strange. Do you ever experience the same thing?
