Your Headphone Volume When Recording

When recording ANY audio, you should keep your headphone volume as low as possible to avoid feedback into your microphone.

Some people like to keep their headphones really loud so they can hear everything really well, but this is not a good practice when recording.

Of course during soundcheck you can crank up the volume to hear things more clearly, but before you start recording bring down the level of your headphones.

I keep my headphones at a very low volume when recording. It’s something you can easily get used to.
