Are you guys still hanging in there? Must admit I've fallen behind but catching up this week - right now I'm only a week behind. Anyone else finding that this material is seriously challenging? The week training on compression and gating was gold dust for me! Actually getting back-to-back listening examples and tests for thresholds, ratios, attack and release was brilliant, I may actually be able to step away from the presets when I venture back into Sonar.
The week spent on changes within a narrow frequency band and eq I found extremely difficult at times, but there's no doubt my ears are improving.
I keep finding that every time I look ahead at what's coming up I think "I'll never be able to do that" and I won't be able to hear any differences at all, but the practice is working; the way the exercises gradually increase the difficulty is excellent. I'm also swinging between elation and despair. Right now I'm doing well, hence a good time to post.
