Has to be the most invalid rebuttal ever. Even if you get expensive equipment, something that’s poorly mixed will sound better, but music that’s better mixed to begin with is still going to sound better on the same equipment

everything comes down to if the music's good.

people have sustained long lasting careers off being mixed like s***.

yeah but mfs on ktt2 turn into advanced sound engineers when they really just thinking too hard

and sometimes you can be mixed "so good" that ppl don't be f***ing wit it like that (e.g. Oxnard)

tbh as i’ve gotten older i care less and less about mixing as long as everything is audible and it’s not mike dean ear rape distorted

It’s a lot of artists who got the best engineers in the world but still be putting out trash… y’all know who

Niggas be talking about sound quality only to listen to music with these

as an engineer, you do want to make sure you're mixing with the idea of what the lowest common denominators will be listening to the music on. The average bear aint listening with sennheiser HD 280s lol

mixedbyali says mixing on bad speakers helps

some music is mixed specifically for bluetooth speakers and laptop speakers, some is mixed with headphones and soundsystems that can produce BASS in mind

am i r-worded or is this post not the point of the thread

& one thing about music when it hits you feel no pain

Stg the biggest artists just use Mike Dean for name clout at this point. He’s fallen OFF.

Same with Eddie Sancho for the underground rap scene

Nah you right lol

My point is that no matter how good or bad your audio equipment is, better mixed/mastered music is always going to sound superior, so there’s zero point in saying that someone should get better equipment if they don’t like the mixing on something

Use better sound gear is bullshit lol my cracked fl studio+mobile fl studio app is all I need

This. I mix my own s*** (poorly, lol) and before I finalize a mix I make sure that everything is at least DECENT on my laptop speakers and what I call the “shitty headphones.”
You want to touch as many people as possible with your music; leaving out those with lesser listening devices would take out a bunch of potential fans.

Right

One of the worst mixed songs of all times, but guess what? It slaps

Honestly if you're a real music fan your hearing too damaged to even notice that
