Headphones or Studio Monitors???

[DeNiro]

When making music, not actually mixing yet (pre-production) would you use Monitor speakers or Headphones???

Whatever is available. Usually my 8050 Genelecs, but I don't mind using headphones when I'm on the road recording.

I use headphones, monitors, or both at once. I must say, I've recently been recording vocals with audio from monitors rather than headphones and it's been alot better, surprisingly. Sure, the vocal tracks pick up the music, but very minimally for some reason. And when you're singing, you feel like you're playing live because it's loud and you're not holding a headset on you.
