Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

E-
  • Tuning is chaotic and fatiguing, with clashing frequencies that make long sessions unbearable. Every song demands frequent volume adjustments.

Average Technical Grade

E-
  • The presentation is claustrophobic and blurred, leaving simple arrangements sounding chaotic and lifeless. The presentation feels more like background noise than music.
Mids E-
Midrange sits extremely recessed, burying vocals under a muddy veil. Lead vocals hide far behind the mix.
Treble E-
Highs sound veiled and distant, draining life from the mix. Hi-hats fade before they start.
Dynamics E-
It cannot muster meaningful volume gradation, making tracks feel static. It drains life from energetic music.
Soundstage E-
The stereo image feels strangled, offering no meaningful placement beyond a cramped midline. There's no escape from the claustrophobia.
