AB  - A technical ear training program designed to teach participants to identify the audible effects of dynamic range compressors was developed and used to train graduate students in music production. A pre-/post-training listening test was used to determine if the students could transfer skills learned during the training program to a related listening task. The participants executed the task repeatedly and the participants’ variance in their final compressor settings was measured. The pre-/post-tests were administered to the trained student group, an untrained student control group, and a group of recently graduated professional engineers. A reduction in variance between the pre-/post-test was measured in the trained group but not in the control group. The trained students also had less variance in their responses than the professional engineers.
