Mixing in Headphones - Focusrite VRM, etc

I often am forced to mix in headphones, and using a plug-in that I made (with delayed and LPF crossfeed), I have pretty good results. In fact, when I set up my nearfields, it took some adjustment to get used to them again!


Has anyone tried the Focusrite VRM:

I'm thinking it could be pretty cool for working with a laptop, or late night mixing. There are also some other plug-ins out there, which look interesting, too.

The nice thing (I think) about the VRM would be the ability to check a mix across a few different 'systems.' The downside I see is that your headphones will invariably influence your perspective, making it necessary to do more referencing than usual, I think!

Anyone have this unit? What do you think of it?

Im forced to mix with headphones a lot as well...I also need to upgrade to a nicer studio monitor in the near future as well.

Phones I use are Sennheiser px 100.

I dont know much about the Focusrite VRM so im not much help there.

Im using a free plugin called crossfeed EQ...you mentioned you made a plug...was wondering if this was yours or not

No, mine is just a one-off that I made using Sonic Birth:

It's a cool program on Mac that you can use to make plug-ins, I've made tape saturation, compressors, delays, etc. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be getting updated for the newer mac operating systems, it's open-source, but as far as I know, there hasn't been an update in recent times.

Might also wanna check out Toneboosters (formerly Jeroen Breebaart) Isone Pro. I've had very nice results with it.

I have VRM on my Focusrite Soundcard but I never use it TBH. Preffered just the normal sound, I found anything else hard to judge.
