SoundID Reference is an amazing software, does definitely translate my mixes to sound true to most playback systems. Only thing I would change is auto enabling the safe headroom because it took me a while to realize it was on and was muting my overall output.

I use Sonarworks to correct the frequency response of my headset (I'm not wealthy enough to have monitors and a treated room). It is amazing to realize how off they've been all this time and how easier it is to produce now I have the correction on. Basically, I get a sound that is much more even across listening devices where I had dramatic differences before. This product is awesome!

I bought during Black Friday and it really does help. Only problem I see is the latency gets pretty high so it’s best to not use while tracking.

Got SoundID to support me while producing on the road and it was become a great reference tool.

This software is beautifully ready to setup/use and immediately makes my headphones more trustworthy for critical listening. I love the fact that - with a single click - I can swap between a flat profile and a custom profile for every pair of headphones I own. It's brilliant software and I honestly don't know how I ever mixed and mastered without it!!

I used Sonarworks Reference only with headphones so far. My headphones are Beyerdynamics DT-990 250 Ohm. These headphones have boosted frequencies around 100 Hz and in the midrange with an amplitude about 3 dB, while the high frequencies are boosted by more than 3 dB. I use this plugin on the Stereo Out of my DAW (Cubase Elements) as the last insert in post-fader position. When I turn it on, it gives me a more realistic picture of the high frequencies (at least, this is what I perceive). The plugin also allow to emulate different audio systems such as laptops and in-ear headphones. It is useful, although more often than not, I just export the mix and try it on other audio systems that I have. The plugin works very stable, no problems at all. The only minor bug that I found is that when I disable the plugin and close Cubase, on the next load, the plugin is enabled by itself.
