Thanx – on my iPhone into my sound damaged tin ears, I couldn’t hear much but I sure could see it onscreen. Btw your studio is a visual treat. For singer/songwriters like me could you do some visual mixing showing how to improve or fx a vocal, retaining the vocal signature but steering clear from those nasty vocoder sounds? Human voice seems similar to eg a sax. Maybe it’s the breath that has the magic?
