Today I’ll share with you a very important tip for music production.
Unfortunately it’s often overlooked and underappreciated. And it’s this one:

Take consistent breaks

Work for 45 minutes then take a 10 to 15 minutes break to reset your ears.
Ear fatigue is very real our ears get tired and they need a break to regain objectivity.

What I do is, I’ll grab my phone I’ll set up a timer for 45 minutes and then, after that, I’ll take a break for 15 minutes.

And then I’ll repeat that cycle for aslong as I need to.

So next time you’re working on your mix, take a break guilt free. Itt will pay off.
