"There are still also plugins that helped me a lot to make sure if I work on the road that it still sounds okay in the club let's say I'm flying to a gig and I have no way of listening to the song on on monitors before the show there's like for example either obviously referencing it with other tunes or something like tonal balance control by ozone helps me a lot because it's not it doesn't do it doesn't change anything it doesn't affect your sound but it shows you like your dynamics over the frequency spectrum in comparison to other songs you've loaded in but as your reference curve you can you can load in an entire folder of songs so you can tell it to analyze like all of your F minor dubstep songs if you have them sorted like that and then it will just give you a target curve that is like the average dubstep curve and if you are like somewhere in there with your track then you know it's gonna be fine there show so that has helped me a lot to work on the road!"
