Tips & Tricks Updated: EarFix - a free hearing loss correction plugin
https://github.com/sneakinhysteria/EarFix
Last year I built this in order to enjoy the same hearing loss correction in my DAW that my AirPod Pros delivered in iOS.
Musicians and engineers are not immune to hearing loss (quite the opposite - we are a high risk group). Yes, you can wear your hearing aids in front of your monitors, but with headphones, applying correction in the DAW seems like a much better idea.
I've just updated the plugin, added Windows support and fine tuned the correction model and added a basic mode to get you started easier. Unlike a few paid alternatives, EarFix works on the basis of your audiogram - your hearing test result. No separate test in an uncalibrated environment needed.
If you like to use this across your entire system for all output, you can use Sound Source (paid) or check out Curve (free and works great for me).
Hearing loss correction should not be a business - so this is completely free and privacy-friendly (no server).
