That's because they have no isolation - they are a semi-open-back design. So they're unsuitable for tracking. You would be far better off with the K271S, which is closed and also cuts very well. Purpose built for tracking.

I never could get the hang of MDR7509HDs. Always find them too bright and brittle sounding. YMMV
