Depending on how many years you have behind a console, we recommend listening to commercial CDs at every stage of a recording. CDs allow you to hear the end result of the pros who are making musical history and to learn from their success.
NOTE: These CDs all sound very different - and the more your system reveals those differences, the more accurate it is. Most of these albums are a few (or more) years old. Mixing Reference CD's should stand the test of time. We recommend these because they are not heavily based around gimmicky ideas or trends. They give you a "center" point to get your bearing from - and then you choose your own sound.
It's ok if your mix doesn't match the volume on these CDs - let the mastering engineer do that. If you are using a monitor controller that allows you to level-match a reference with your mix, then you'll have the advantage of just listening to the sonic textures - otherwise volume wins every time. Level-match and listen to the blend, the balance, the spread of the sound stage, the smoothness, the punch, the vocal placement, the vibe....
