The problem I run into is that I would like to use the hybrid but even at literally a 3 or 4 tick volume on my phone while listening to headphones where I can comfortably hear the masked part, it causes me great discomfort and all but pain for my ears after listening for a time. The discomfort lasts for hours after I'm done. I don't want to cause any permanent damage to my hearing and that's what it feels like it's doing.
The unfortunate part is that I know you're right that the masked isn't working. I can tell the difference just from this run compared to the first few days with the hybrid. I've already started my loops for tonight, so I'll try playing the hybrid only putting it at 1 or 2 ticks on my iphone after the two rest days. I know it'll be harder to hear the masked part but I should still be able to hear since I play the sounds at night and there shouldn't be any background noise. If that doesn't work and I'm still having problems, then I'll reassess at that point.
