you know what? I am surprised this was overlooked.
I +++1 this all the way.
Music is different now than years past. People, more and more, LISTEN on headphones...not on the big home stereo systems that seemed so ever popular in the 80's. How many people have ipods? you know? Mixing on headphones, while it is discouraged DOES give you a point of view that IS relative...I mix a lot on headphones. I cross check on my monitors, but I prefer the intimate nature of cans, and do 80% of my work there...a lot of others do this because of environmental factors. I think having this would be more useful and NOT a gimmick feature.
