is it posstible to use headfones rather than monitors...
e.g. in conjunction with a good audio card...
being in halls is a problem to blast out music all time.
was thinking of something decent like akg's
any thoughts?

Not really.
There are special studio headphones you can buy, but my bet is they'll only be good as a reference.

Tell me about it. I had my hall card taken off me about 20 times and had 3 disciplinary meetings within a year.
And now I'm complaining about my neighbours music(james blunt and scissor sisters on repeat)....man I'm getting old.

Well I doubt there were many brain surgeons in the airport that had come to the conclusion he was working on his greatest ever mixdown at that point! Anyway... who is he? Just cos he says he's an electro producer guy doesn't mean he's not just a kid with a laptop!

I use headphones when my parents tell me to shut up, but of course, I never use them for mixing down.

No, what I'm saying is.... it doesn't mean he knows what he's doing when it comes to the mixdown stage!
