SONARWORKS 12-41475 Overview

SONARWORKS SoundID Reference for Speakers & Headphones is a calibration plug-in and app delivering consistently accurate studio reference sound on your existing headphones and speakers. SoundID Reference for headphones delivers consistently accurate studio reference sound on more than 400 supported headphones. The software eliminates your speakers' and headphones' sound coloration by setting their frequency response to be completely flat across all audible frequencies, ensuring that every mix translates regardless of the speakers or headphone your audience uses for monitoring. Whether in the comfort of your studio or on the road, you can mix with confidence and make music that sounds great everywhere.

After installing the software you can proceed with your speaker calibration. It takes just 15 minutes to complete the measurement process using a flat-frequency-response microphone such as the SONARWORKS Calibration Measurement Mic (available separately) or any similar mic.

When measurement is completed, save your speaker profile and apply correction using the plug-in in your favorite DAW or use the SoundID Reference system-wide app to correct sound from any source on your computer.

Beside ensuring a neutral sound, SoundID Reference offers other useful features including Custom Target, which allows you to make custom adjustments to the target curve in real time. Translation Check helps you simulate your mix on a plethora of devices such as laptop speakers, phone speakers, car speakers, and more.

Note:
A SoundID Reference mic or a flat-frequency-response omnidirectional measurement microphone (either available separately) is required to use the speaker calibration software.

This product is an educational discounted upgrade available to qualified students and faculty/staff of accredited academic institutions only. This EDU upgrade is for registered users of Sonarworks Reference 4 Studio. You must have a registered license in order to qualify for this upgrade.
