You can make use of this in studio work too. When you get to
V7 of a mix, and are convinced that V2 is the one, you can play
then back to the client V7 first, and then V2 +2dB. He usually
responds, "Yes you are right, that's the one!"

Iain, I wouldn't have thought of you as a person to use this form of
psychoacoustic deception ;-)


You *know* when a mix is right, and at 0300 hrs, it's time to
assert that knowledge:-)

On an automated console you can keep the elements of the mix.
Coming back the next morning, and comparing the two takes, re-
enforces the fact that the decision was a correct one. The client
says "I knew I could depend on your good judgement" and takes
you to lunch:-)
