Average Technical & Tuning Grades
Average Tunign Grade
E+- Tonally jarring or fatiguing. Frequency clashes (e.g., piercing treble, bloated bass) make extended listening unpleasant. Poor genre adaptation.
Average Technical Grade
E+- Noticeably blurred or congested. Struggles with basic instrument separation; details are lost in simple tracks. Feels "flat" and one-dimensional.
Bass
D
Bass is light and underwhelming. While some faint rumble exists, it lacks punch and authority in any meaningful way.
Mids
E+
Midrange is thin and hollow with noticeable gaps. Instruments lack body and vocals sound distant and weak.
Treble
E+
Treble is noticeably dark and lacking extension. Cymbals lack shimmer and high-frequency details are obscured.
Dynamics
E+
Limited dynamic range with poor micro-detail. Subtle volume changes are lost, and transients lack proper attack.
Details
E+
Noticeably blurred and lacking definition. Background elements are smeared together and micro-details are inaudible.
Imaging
E+
Poor instrument placement with unstable positioning. Instruments drift and lack fixed locations within the sound field.
Gaming
E+
Compromised imaging significantly impacts gameplay awareness. Directional cues often lack accuracy or consistency.
