Think you have a pair of “golden ears?” Well, here’s your chance to prove it. Focusrite has launched the Liquid Mix Challenge. You are presented with ten different audio excerpts, with the original dry sample, followed by two processed samples tagged A and B. One of these was processed using hugely expensive vintage and classic hardware, while the other was processed using a Liquid Mix digital emulation of the exact same equipment. For each processed sample, you have to correctly choose the one that was processed using Liquid Mix. You also get to choose which clip sounds better. At the end of the Challenge, your score is displayed, as well as an aggregate score from people just like you from around the world that have taken the challenge. You can even enter to win a brand new Liquid Mix 4PRE. Just go to:
