The HP-1 is an over-ear studio headphone designed for mixing and QC. With 3 selectable voicings, the HP-1 gives you a neutral, accurate view of your mix, and also allows you to check how your work will sound on the most popular headphones in use today. With the press of a button, you can switch between the three different voicings:
- Studio Mode delivers crisp, accurate sound that can be trusted to translate to the widest variety of playback systems.
- Consumer Mode mimics headphones sold alongside smartphones and tablets. The tuning is natural, balanced, and unobtrusive.
- Bass Heavy Mode is a fun voicing similar to headphones that are popular with hip-hop fans and producers.
Quality-of-life features like Bluetooth, noise cancelling, and 40 hours of battery life make the HP-1 a fantastic all-around headphone.
