    So i was trying to choose some sounds for a track and after listening on headphones i think the sounds are a bit more harsh/distorted than i needed them to be

    what would be a fix for this?

    Replacing the sounds i understand would be a good option..but just checking for any other advise


    thanks

    Maybe it's not the sounds but the headphone? Sonarworks Reference would help in that case.
    Otherwise, replacing yes or fixing the harshness with something like Brainworx Refinement or a similar tool (there are lots of workarounds, from de-essers to dynamic eq and from multiband compression to Soothe2).
    If it's already distorted, there's not much you can do I guess.
