Headphone volume and feedback

In a studio you will be able to control the volume of the headphones to a certain extent. This is though, usually limited to stop accidental damage to your ears. It also stops the volume being turned up high so noise does not leak (or ‘bleed’) from them, causing feedback (that high-pitched squeak, which we looked at just now).

But remember the volume you hear yourself through your headphones is not the volume in which you are speaking and the level of your voice that is being broadcast or recorded. So be careful not to think, say, “hey I’m loud, so I can soften my voice”. What you can hear in your headphones is an artificial reality. If they are too loud you may instinctively speak softer, if they are too low you may speak louder.
