SoundGym: Ear Training For Sound Designers?

Sound Designer’s Starter Pack: https://daviddumaisaudio.com/starterpack

If you could upgrade your hearing, would you? What if you could train yourself to hear frequencies more accurately? What about hearing compression, reverb, distortion, and panning?

I think it’s safe to say that if your hearing could improve, you would improve as a sound designer, field recorder, audio mixer, or whatever audio related work you are doing.

Now what exactly are you doing about this?

In this video, we take a look at SoundGym – an ear training platform for audio engineers. Though the platform itself is aimed at audio engineers, mixers, and perhaps even producers or composers, I believe it is still super useful for sound designers and any professionals working in audio.

In the video, we’ll have a go at three games: Compressionist, Stereohead, and Kit Cut. We’ll also look over some of the features that make SoundGym really great.
