I think SoundID Reference for Headphones does exactly what it claims to do - and I think its corrected profiles were the best of all the ones I've tried - but in Studio One Pro 6 I couldn't use SoundID at the same time as my Apogee Groove. Also, in stand-alone mode, which again, I think is a great option to sometimes have SoundID available system-wide, its driver would take over from my UA Volt driver, and not release control even when I would stop the SoundID app. I'd have to reboot my computer to get back to the UA driver. These problems might not be issues for those more skilled than myself - or maybe it's because I'm using PC, not Mac, but I had to return the product.

The software does what it claims to do, quietly and without needing a whole lot of setup. For a number of reasons, I don't have studio monitors and mix in headphones. I'm very happy with how SoundID has improved my ability to audition mixes.

The SoundID Reference for headphones is an invaluable resource for me as I strive to release professional music from my own home. What you offer is necessary and important.

My first mix with the software was the best one so far. It made a huge difference, compensating for the headphones response. I think it's a game changer. I'm very glad I purchased this software.

I bought Sonarworks for headphones and have been pleasantly surprised with how much the software has helped my mixes translate better to other systems. I typically use headphones for checking final things on mixes (extreme high and low end, reverb, delays, etc.) and Sonarworks dramatically improved the decisions I make in that final stage. My headphones are great, but they are not even remotely flat, and it feels great to now have the assurance that I'm hearing accurate information when monitoring through headphones.

Ich nutze das Plugin mittlerweile ständig beim Mastern von Podcasts, um mir den Klang auf unterschiedlichen Kopfhörern zu simulieren und um zu prüfen, ob es überall gut klingt. Man kann sich aber auch einen Eindruck verschaffen, wie der Mix unter anderem im Auto oder auf dem Smartphone klingen würde. Wenn man weiß, welche Kopfhörer der Kunde nutzt, kann man natürlich auch prüfen, wie er es hört und Änderungswünsche besser nachvollziehen.

I bought headphones for sound mixing, knowing that I would have problems getting an objective and flat response. Sound id was the immediate solution to my problem and without a doubt a great help to my finances. I can now work comfortably and confidently on my new projects.
