I don't have a great room so i'm using Headphones to mix. Since i use The IDReference (for headphones) my mixes improved significantly. Love it, wouldn't wanna mix without it.

Pretty straight forward to install and supports a wide range of headphones, making this accessible to a lot of people. The visuals on the program are nice and clean and give a very professional feel, whilst making it easy to see the frequency spectrum etc. Quality overall is very good and I can hear the difference right away with my mixes. I would recommend this for sure.

It's halved the amount of mix revisions I'm doing - I still do "car listens" because the low end is referenced more reliably there, but I'm doing less tweaks. The option to change the listening environment to emulate earpods, car stereos and TV etc is particularly useful. It's very easy to use and I look forward to upgrading to the room version soon.

SoundID Reference for Headphones tamed the treble peak of my Sennheiser HD-400 Pros and rendered them usable for longer sessions without causing treble fatigue. A/B testing them with and without the correction reveals a difference between headphones I would like to have and headphones I would likely return.

i use sonarworks as a hooby musician the list of headphones that has been calibrated is extensive and adjusting to different enviroments is a great help even if just a rough guide .still working my way through it but i think its good just to have it in the toolbox .

It works great with my headphones that are featured, when it works. Great sound quality, however it doesn't contain as many headphone models as I'd like. Also there has been a problem with the application where it wouldn't play any audio anymore, and I couldn't close it via task manager, so I had to uninstall and reinstall it.

We are working on expanding our supported headphone list and you can definitely let us know if there are any brands and models you would like to see available. Generally, we prioritize the models based on user request, but your requests are noted for our audio team. As for the issues you have mentioned with the software - sorry to hear about these!
