Beat Making accidents!

Just had a terrible experience while making a beat. I was using samples but then went to add a VST on top but since the samples are so quiet, I turned the volume up.

Well, as you can guess, when I hit the pad to play the VST, it was like BASLFKJASDF093JASDLFKJ!!!! in my ears. I never threw the headphones off my head faster.

So I have to take a break and rest my ears today. Ugh.

Anyone else have any beat making accidents?

@Fade I feel you on that volume incident, had the same thing happen a couple of months ago when a primitive bitcrusher VST I often use glitched out and just sent a bunch of ear-piercing junk when I enabled it... thankfully I didn't suffer much, but it was a shocking experience nonetheless.

1. Losing my projects due to hard drive crash (last year I lost really, really cool beats :( )
2. Similar situation like yours @Fade but in my case it was a "joke" by one of my colleagues. He sent me a file to review and when I played it, it attacked me with some crazy loud squeaky sounds and my reaction was similar to yours... Thankfully my ears are good.
1. Sorry to hear that!
2. That's not a joke, wtf. That's like calling someone and blowing an air horn into the phone.
