your longest session without stopping?

[moonglow359]

I'm finishing my session of yesterday + this morning.

From 7pm to 5.10 am, almost 12 hours! I didn't even notice the time -it just flied away

Now I'm really proud of this tune I did... I need to go to bed but I'm not even tired! I have some work to do in the day, I really hope I don't get any calls for work! Cuz then I'm fucked!

I plan not to sleep until I finish this.

This is one of my longest session .. I never measured others but I'm pretty sure that is one of my longest. Back in the ganja days I never managed to go so long!

I noticed I really love sampling as of lately, btw.

if any1 wants to hear what I've been doing so long, I'll upload a clip but haven't listened on monitors yet, so I'll wait till people wakes up and blast and see the mixdown.

I've said to myself. Let's do an 5 track DNB EP, that will be good, took me ages to get back in production shape, now I'm the happiest person alive ,or better I would be if I wouldn't be so broke right now.

To clear things up, I probably went over 12 hours a few times ... haven't been working for so long without stopping since the last winter.. but I don't even remember ever doing it for so long without a break.

I'm on headphones atm, I hope it won't sound shit on monitors! tell me about your longest session

my ears normally get tired after a few hours. also sometimes get loop mong - where u heard the same few bars of a break over n over n over.
so after 2 hours will walk away for 10/15 mins then come back

I'm not actually sure what my longest session (in one sitting I assume you mean) has been man! I am certain it has not been any more than a few hours.

I have had days in school holidays where I have got up at like 10, had some breakfast, opened up Cubase and went for it. I stop for breaks and like lunch and that but thats how a bulk of my tunes get done (minus finished mixdowns)

plus sometimes I stay up until the early hours of the morning but at night I often get tired and lose motivation... :/

I was going to go for one of those production days to day but I am just going to chill this morning and then get a mixdown done this afternoon

In that case!

Few minutes...
Few seconds...

But still, best 10 seconds of my life

4-5 hours at most. It's proven that you will suffer from "ear fatigue" after an hour of intense listening, certain frequencies become less apparent. That's why a good 10-15 minute break away from the computer each hour or so is good for the mix.

you have to be careful mate...and you are working on headphones. you are really gon mess up your ears
