Hearing Test Reveals some cool stuff.

Vocals too high in the mix? Too low? Not even sure? Snare sounds wonky? And how do I make everything louder than everything else? Step in, step in, for your mix Viagra from people who know the secrets.

With the UTUB thing & headphones I could hear at a little above 22, at 100 there was a swirl in my tinnitus like a slow Leslie, at 320 my tinnitus started to thrum, at 900 the source seemed to move to the right a little, at 4kHz the vol dipped and returned at 5kHz and things started to slide rapidly at 7k so I've deteriorated a bit in half a year.
I've spent MUCH more time with headphones on due to living arrangements over the last year and that would, probably account for the deterioration.
Mind you the kettle was boiling etc. as I did the "test".

I like that we're all over here testing ourselves with a Youtube video as if we don't have high-quality monitoring systems and the ability to generate sin waves!

Novelty and distraction PLUS the commonality of experience.
