The ideal speaker volume for mixing music is 80–85 dB SPL (Sound Pressure Level). This range aligns with the human ear’s flattest frequency response according to the Fletcher-Munson curve. For best results, mix mostly at moderate levels, check in mono and stereo, listen quietly for detail, and only use high volumes briefly to avoid ear fatigue. 🔊 What Is dB SPL? Sound Pressure Level (SPL) is a measurement of how loud sound is in a physical space, measured in decibels (dB). Unlike digital level meters in your DAW, dB SPL measures actual air pressure — how loud the sound…

Sean “Diddy” Combs juror George, one of six alternates in the high-profile trial, broke his silence Thursday night (July 3), describing Cassie Ventura’s courtroom testimony and the explicit video evidence shown to the jury as “very riveting” and “eye-opening” but ultimately not coercive. “They were very graphic, but I think overall, we were looking at it from one side; it was definitely riveting and eye-opening,” George told CNN about the so-called “freak-off” footage shown during the proceedings. “There was sexual activity, but it didn’t seem forced,” he said. “It was actually like pretty tame. It was just a lot of…
