It's 4a.m. and you have an irate neighbor/roommate/significant other threatening your life because he/she has been listening to you voice, edit, mix and master all night. Ever so politely you explain that mixing on headphones is a no no for audio pros. Further, you explain that you feel you've been fairly quiet since you blast it much louder when you're at work. Still, the enraged victim persists in detailing exactly how he/she will dismember you if you don't stop with the racket.
Save yourself from a CSI-style crime scene with a new plug-in called Redline Monitor from a company called 112db. It allows you to mix and master on headphones by simulating near-field monitors.
The usual wide/extreme stereo separation that you hear in headphones is replaced with
the detailed stereo image that you are used to hearing. You will be able to
mix with confidence using your cans. Set your levels, stereo placement, and
finalize your mix with out punishing those around you.
Headphone mixing is now a reality anywhere, anytime, and without ear fatigue (as long as you don't slam yourears with unsafe volume levels). Redline will help you achieve better
separation and make your mixes sound as if you mixed in front of your near
field monitors.
This is a great tool! We test drove the demo. Remember, we don't get paid or get freebies for endorsing anything. We're not greasing friends in the biz. We just test stuff and if we like it, we tell you about it.

We did some math for you too:
1 Meter = 3.28 Feet
1.5 Meters = 4.92 Feet
2 Meters = 6.56 Feet
2.5 Meters = 8.20 Feet
3 Meters = 9.84 Feet
3.5 Meters = 11.48 Feet
4 Meters = 13.12 Feet
