I used to remedy this by holding my work up to a mirror, periodically... but with music i have found no such method. Too bad putting your headphones on backwards doesn't do the trick =) RE: FRESH EARS

After recording a project for months, you've developed a certain audio bias if you will. Chances are you don;t even know it. (the ear is a strange and wonderful thing) The familiarity of your project is exactly what you DON'T want. You WANT the 1st impression someone gets when listening to your work for the first time. Consider that this is how a consumer will hear it! cheers, Fotios Nice summary…..The biggest point of having a mastering engineer finish your project is FRESH EARS.
