Yesterday I told you about Kevon’s struggle —the guy who had pages of notes and hours of tutorials behind him, yet still couldn’t figure out why his recordings weren’t winning jobs.
When he finally got live feedback, everything clicked.
Today I want to share another story that shows how powerful that can be.
A few weeks ago, someone sent me the demos and auditions he’d already built and submitted.
He asked for my feedback.
At first, everything looked good.
Nice levels. Clean processing. Nothing obviously wrong.
But after a few seconds of listening, two things stood out:
The takes were full of mouth clicks.
The sound had a harsh reflection — not a big echo, but just enough to make it sound like it wasn’t recorded in a truly professional space.
He wasn’t aware of the mouth clicks at all.
His ears had simply tuned them out.
And that subtle reflection? He thought it was normal — because he’d been listening to his setup for so long, he didn’t notice it anymore.
Here’s the thing: he had already spent a lot on building his career, professional demo reels, headshots, and an expensive website.
But no one had ever given him real feedback on his actual audio, the most crucial aspect of improving audio.
That was the piece missing all along.
When someone experienced listens to your work and helps you make small, specific corrections in real time, it changes everything.
You don’t waste hours second-guessing.
You don’t over-tweak.
You just hear what’s wrong, fix it, and move forward with clarity.
That’s what feedback does: it gives you new ears.
