Conforming to this directive will minimise the risk of hearing damage caused
by long listening periods. A simple rule to follow is: The longer you listen, the
lower the average volume should be. Please take care when working with your
audio system – if you are manipulating controls which you don’t understand
(which we all do when we are learning), make sure your monitoring level is
turned down.
Remember that your ears are the most important tool of your
trade. Look after them, and they will look after you. Most importantly: Don’t
be afraid to experiment to find out how each parameter affects the sound;
this will extend your creativity and help you to get the best results.
