“Easy and guided setup to automate the tuning of my room. Enough possibilities for finetuning manually. Also good to see that Sonarworks teams up with other companies (like Adam and RME) to store the calculated room profile in the hardware’s DSP. I know where to save my money for next ;-)
One thing that I was disappointed about (and made me hold the 5th star) was the headphone correction for the Beyerdynamic DT-990. Though it’s not documented anywhere (shame on Beyerdynamic), this headphone clearly has multiple generations sold with a total different character. Unfortunately SoundID currently supports only the newer (harsher) version. Resulting in a midrange boost that is far too much for the older warmer version. A pity for such a widespread headphone model.
Most probably this wil also apply to the DT-770, but I did not (yet) test it.”
“This was the best purchase decision I made in 2024. I was thinking about buying a measuring microphone for quite a long time but always thought that this is a very hard and tehnical process and I don’t want to waste my time. Sonarworks made this so easy I think even my mom could measure my studio in 20 minutes. And it readly improved quality of my work. Never ever room acoustics will be a problem for me.”
“After I have tried it out for a couple of mixes and compared the result with my old mixes I really hear a differens. My mixes after the calibration is more balanced and translates better to other units. I strongly recomend this product and Sonarworks”
“It is like hearing again for the first time. I was expecting my Adam's to sound a bit better in my room but it was actually shocking just how much SoundID helped balance out my speakers. I finally get the best out of them and my mixes have improved greatly. Just so happy with the product.”
“Fantastic product. Really helps you get a clear idea of what is going on in your mix and how it is going to sound when it is played through different types of speakers. It helps to pinpoint little problems that may not regularly be detectable on your monitors but may be super obvious on, say, a car stereo.”
