Sonarworks SoundID Reference for Multichannel - Electronic Delivery

Sonarworks SoundID Reference for Multichannel is a quick and easy-to-use software tool that brings consistent and reliable reference sound to your multi channel environment. You will find how your mixes will start translating better and as the SoundID Reference calibration process is simple and takes less than an hour, you’ll be able to recalibrate your system as soon as you change something about your room, maintaining the reference sound around you constantly.

CONSISTENT MEASUREMENTS

One of the key features that SoundID Reference offers is the consistency of the sound between different measurements, different rooms, and different users. SonarWorks' patented microphone location system together with 37 point measurement ensures that every time you do the measurement, you effortlessly follow the exact same measurement method. Through this process, the software then learns not only the frequency response of each measured point in your room but also the relative coordinates of these points. Thus the algorithms can be more intelligent about analyzing the acoustics of your room and calculating the proper calibration profile for your system. Reliably and consistently.

To deliver maximum precision of the frequency response measurements, the SoundID Reference measurement microphone measurement microphone has been upgraded to feature multi-angle calibration profiles for 0, 30, and 90-degree angles, so that the most appropriate calibration curve can be selected for your ear-level or ceiling satellites. If you already own a SoundID Reference measurement microphone it will be backward compatible with this feature.

The result of this is that by using SoundID Reference for Multichannel you will always arrive at the same reference sound in your room. You will be able to discuss sound matters with your team also working on SoundID Reference sound without friction. And if you happen to travel & work between different studios, you’ll be able to quickly calibrate those rooms to work on the reference sound you know & trust.

ACCURATE TIME ALIGNMENT OF SPEAKER CHANNELS

To hear a sharp and accurate sound stage, either your speakers must be precisely placed on a sphere around your sweetspot, or the time delays of your output channels must be precisely calculated with sub-millisecond accuracy. Especially so for the subwoofer which must be carefully time-aligned to the satellite speakers in order to work with them and not against them. SoundID Reference for Multichannel takes care of this challenge by accurately measuring the phase response of your speakers and calculating the time delay based on that. You will be surprised by how sharp your soundstage can sound when you hear the result.

THE TARGET CURVE THAT YOU NEED IS HERE

It seems that most stereo studio engineers agree that “flat” sound is the best for creating great mixes that translate well. The multichannel world seems to be slightly more complicated. But don’t worry, SoundID Reference will take care of that.
