It comes with a brand new set of breathable ear pads for long sessions and the plosive rejection is unbelievably good and in all honesty, the clarity for a headset mic is unheard of, especially under £200!

Sennheiser HD 400 Pro - Open Back Studio Headphones - Good for Mixing? Scan Pro Audio 2021-12-01 | Sennheiser's HD 400 Pro is a new headphone designed for studio mix work, with price tag just over £200.

We forgot to mention these are 120 Ohm and do benefit from a decent headphone amp, Something like the ifi Zen Can or Topping L20 / A30 Pro would do really well for a modest investment if your interface hasn't got enough power.

AKG K701/702 - The Best EQ Correction Curve for Mixing Scan Pro Audio 2020-06-20 | K701: bit.ly/2XrjZvV // K702: bit.ly/3kluBGTWe know a few (hundred) of you grabbed some of our bargain £69 B-grade sets recently, but I've always been disappointed with the sonarworks corrective preset for them. I managed to check them against toneboosters morphit, though that had a bit too much top end (and a little bit low on the kick region), when we compare against the signatures of the A-grade studio headphones we have here (Audeze, Focal etc)So, here's a free corrective preset for Fabfilter Pro-Q (2 or 3) that should be much more accurate and balanced for mixing. This won't magically turn your headphones into £4000 Audeze's (as it can't add detail, just adjust tonal balance), but should get a lot better translation for your mixes with them.Otherwise you can try and duplicate the curve with another EQ, but I really do recommend pro-q 3 for this.Put the eq as the last plugin on your master or monitor bus (don’t forget to disable before you bounce, of course)105Hz +4.5dB Q1.35 Low Shelf690Hz +3.0dB Q2.4 Peak1320Hz +2.0dB Q4.0 Peak2700Hz -3.4dB Q2.0 Peak5950Hz -3.2dB Q3.0 Peak10900Hz +3.7dB Q5.0 Peak14600Hz +3.3dB Q3.6 PeakWill also be 95% of the way there for K701 owners, there's only a tiny difference between the two models (mostly a removable cable)”Pro-Q 3dropbox.com/s/cq74dlsfx9a0hnf/Tom's K702 Curve.ffp?dl=0Pro-Q 2dropbox.com/s/ni2qhtdnw9hac8n/Tom's K702 Curve - proq2.ffp?dl=0

Tsakalis Nerve - Dual Channel Distortion Pedal Scan Pro Audio 2020-01-06 | Steve shows three distinctly different tones on this handmade Greek dual distortion pedal. The Nerve MKII is a seriously high-gain distortion pedal, designed with heavy and aggressive styles in mind. Capable of tones from a mild crunch, to chainsaw-like distortion, the Nerve allows for excellent control and always remains tight and punchy, unlike some other high-gain pedals which can often times suffer from sounding too fizzy and thin. The Nerve MKII holds a wide variety of high-gain distortions underneath it’s tough metal chassis. Using the Nerve’s control panel, we’re able to mould the distortion to precisely how we’d like it. Prefer a more British style sound? No problem. Maybe the tight, high-gain American sound is more your kind of style? Sorted, all bases covered. scan.co.uk/products/tsakalis-audio-works-nerve-mkii-dual-high-gain-distortion-guitar-effect-pedal-two-channels-jfetscan.co.uk/shop-by-brand/tsakalis-audio-works
