lol I thought this was going to be a Robbie existential rant but then the punchline. Hilarious.

LMAO. I thought you might say that. I had a listen to one of my tracks via my mobile phone on headphones the other day, and it took me ages to realise that it it sounded shit because it was playing back entirely in mono (why did it take me ages to work that out? ) . The weird thing was, it wasn't my headphones, I jiggled them about for ages, blew into the socket etc etc etc, but nothing worked. I thought the headphones were broken. I stopped the song, then started it again, and like magic the stereo image re-appeared. Weird.

Hahah. I think everyone has done something similar. *Leaves the EQ punched out* "Yeah, this sounds so much better with the treble boosted!" *Five Minutes Later...* "Why isn't this stupid EQ not working?"

loool, i use a mixer preamp for my headphones, one day i had the low kill switch engaged, im like what happened to zee bass. oh well, im gonna boost it 20DB, YA THIS SOUNDS ROCKING. save, oh noes. stuff like this doesnt matter, you will always make something better even if you lose it in my opinion. I have lost things due to faulty laptop hard-drives.

I've got a tip for you, don't drink and work.

Originally posted by LoWahn Hah... So this happened last night, figured this would be the crowd to find this kinda funny... Got home from a long day of work, cracked open a beer, and went into my quasi-studio. After checking the forums, e-mails; all that good stuff, I fired up Ableton and opened a recent project, with an intent to mess around with synthesizers. I had worked on a tune for a couple hours the night before, and remembered it being pretty decent, with a solid groove. As I'm just about to get started, my girlfriend gets home, from her own long day at work. My current production style is... agressive, to say the least (been working on some dubstep-style stuff recently) and as customary, a request to use headphones instead of my (nice and loud) monitors was issued. So popping on my headphones, I start to work on my track... Now keep in mind I got a couple beers in me, I'm half paying attention, got other things on my mind, etc... But the audio...sounded...odd... I notice a lack of bass. An immediate drop in frequencies at the end of one of my more powerful bass-lines... it sounds horrible. I fire up my daw, and spend the next two hours furiously working with compressors, EQ, trying desperately to figure out what the hell changed. I remembered this track being decent; not washed out and bassless. I went to the Ableton forums, saw that a new patch was out. That had to be it. Downloaded, updated, restarted, same thing... Worked on my project some more, to the point where it sounded completely different (much worse). Everything was just compressed and horrible. To make matters worse, I accidentally saved it half way through the disection... So remember... Always make sure to plug your headphones all the way in.

lol, one time a guy sent me vocals and i was like "this is shit, it's all over the place, clipping, etc". 2hrs later i realized i had my headphones not all the way plugged in, had to send him an apology. WHOOPS!

Hahaha
