**Short answer:** Reverie Mix is a good browser trainer for naming what changed in a finished mix. If you want to set the controls yourself, or find which instrument a problem sits on, these do it differently.

- **Set the controls, not just name them:** Mix Chops: sweep and cut, set the faders, match a compressor, all in a browser.
- **Hear EQ on a phone app:** MixSense, on iPhone, Android and the web.
- **Pay once, train on your own music:** TrainYourEars EQ Edition, for Mac and Windows.

I make Mix Chops, so weigh that. Everything here about Reverie Mix was read from its own pages on 9 November 2026 (numbered sources at the foot). Prices change: check before you buy.

## Reverie Mix at a glance

Reverie Mix, by Reverie Audio, runs in the browser with eight exercises: EQ boost, EQ cut, compressor attack, compressor release, stereo image, phase, low-end cleanup and loudness matching[1]. It plays full musical material: drums, vocals and full bands[1]. The free plan covers all eight for 15 rounds a day, with an account[2,3]. Pro adds unlimited rounds, practice on one instrument inside the full mix, and your own audio, for US$12 a month or US$120 a year, with no trial[2,3].

## Reverie Mix vs Mix Chops

| Feature | Reverie Mix | Mix Chops |

## Where they differ

- **How you answer.** Most Reverie Mix exercises ask you to identify the setting you hear[4]. Mix Chops starts there, then has you set it: sweep and cut a resonance, set faders back by ear, match a hidden compressor.
- **What’s trained.** Reverie Mix covers phase and loudness matching, which Mix Chops doesn’t. Mix Chops covers level balance, pan and width and, in Pro, depth, echo and reverb.
- **The music.** Reverie Mix Pro can put the change on one instrument inside the full mix[2,3]. Mix Chops’ songs are split into stems, so a problem can sit on one instrument and you find which.
- **Free.** Reverie Mix: every exercise, 15 rounds a day, with an account. Mix Chops: a daily session and eight exercises’ first levels, no account.
- **Price.** The same monthly price, US$12. A year is US$120 on Reverie Mix and US$99 on Mix Chops.
