“Decided to upgrade from Reference 4 to soundID. since Reference 4's EOL was announced.
SoundID still unstable and higher latencies than before also buffer that worked before without a problem now brings crackles and/or stops to the playback engine.”

“It's very buggy. It becomes garbled and distorted every half hour or so, and I have to quit and restart the program to make it work again. They released it without testing it enough.”

“One of my best home studio investments was to buy Sonarworks Reference 4 Studio Edition with mic and to upgrade it to SoundID Reference eventually. Same great experience but with more features such as convenient and extended Translation Check section with different popular speakers and headphones. My productions quality increased drastically and I just love to have an option to mix using my headphones.”
