The upgrade is useful because you can now modify the shape of the correction.

Turing it on and off is nuts. The difference is pretty huge in my system and I have nice Yamaha monitors. It focuses the sound. It’s truly remarkable how much more confidence I have in my mixes.

New Headphone Profiles and quite a good offer for the upgrade let me hit the button. Don‘t regret, quality as used to and a good experience.

I was lucky to get this upgrade on sale but I find the pricing of the upgrade a little steep after having already purchased the Sonarworks Reference software. The upgrade itself went very smooth and the new software works as expected. The new target modes and being able to set up different presets per output pair are really nice features!

An easy upgrade to a more sophisticated version of SW, took only ten minutes, although I did perform another room measurement for my monitors which took a further 20 minutes. Well worth the upgrade.

I’m using it for years now, very useful in situations, when you have to mix, but you don’t have a gear around which you are used to, only couple of any headphones. Now it just got better.

I have used the Sonarworks system since the "reference 3" version. That time I worked in a not treated room and had a lot of issues with that. Even though with the calibration system I had amazing and consistent results given the condition, my mixes translated very well through different playback systems. Years later I moved to another place and now, even with a well treated room and a better monitoring system, I keep using the Sonarworks system (Sound ID - latest version) becouse it works. Period. It's one of the most important tools I have, it's one of the very feel tools I can't work without. If you can't trust your ears you can't make decisions property and everything become pointless. Every little step you can do in order to be more confident about your monitoring system really worths it. Sound ID is definitively one of the most effective ways to get better results without spending thousands.. and even spending thousands you should propably want to keep using the Sound ID! That's my humble opinion based on years of usage of the system with very satisfactory results!
