| Graham, I'm in a similar situation. Thankfully i don't have planes flying overhead or kids running around, but I'm in a hallway with bad acoustics and a non-ideal mixing shape. I actually mix in a room that IS set up properly, on a pair of Dynaudio's. The tracking/monitoring part is what I have trouble with. I do need to upgrade my monitors for the tracking set up, so I'll probably go with the LSRs and keep using headphones. It will be a while until I can build a better environment, so I have to make do.
Jay - I've wondered about the Bose headphones also. I think that in front of a kick drum or cabinet it'll still bleed, though. They're great headphones but not impenetrable! |
