Can you mix on headphones or earbuds and get a good sounding mix? Well, whenever you ask the question "can I", the answer is almost always "yes", and the same is true for headphone mixes.

There are however a few things to keep in mind when mixing on headphones, so in this video, I take you through my three biggest tips, which are:
 1. Understand the limitations (frequency response)
 2. Know your headphones (play music you are familiar with to get to know your own headphones)
 3. Reference your tracks on other playback devices (car, phone, home stereo)
