Display calibration ensures that what you see on a screen—whether it’s program metadata, waveforms, or text—is rendered with consistent brightness, contrast, and color accuracy. Screens that are not properly calibrated can show uneven lighting or color shifts that strain your eyes over time and make it harder to judge visual details accurately. This is especially important during long sessions of reading, mixing audio, or reviewing playlists, where subtle inconsistencies can go unnoticed but still impact comfort and clarity. One simple way to check your monitor’s performance is to use a black screen for display testing . A uniformly dark background makes it much easier to detect issues like glare, backlight bleed, or uneven brightness that might blend into normal content. Doing this basic test from time to time helps you keep your display reliable and your viewing experience more comfortable during extended use.
