I spent a lot of the past 6-17 years homeless. I never gave up on making music, but I had to survive sometimes by sleeping in some really loud places both inside and outside. It messed up my ears a bit, and I already had some hearing damage from riding the train to class in downtown Chicago and mixing for too many hours.
Two things I've learned:
1) sleep with high grade earplugs in. an audiologist teacher taught my class that hearing system needs sleep just like eyes and body
2) if you're mixing and you'are about to turn up the volume, you actually need to turn it DOWN instead. the audiologist teacher taught our class that hearing is more accurate at lower levels so you can mix better at lower volumes than higher volumes and get better results than fighting the Fletcher-Munson curve. Thanks teacher![:D]( "Very Happy")
