“Honestly, sometimes the software is buggy, but the support staff is STELLAR. Always quick to respond, kind, and helpful. When everything's working, Reference gives me the perspectives I need to make my mixes the best they can be. I had a lot of anxiety mixing with my near-field monitors; all of that went away when I picked up Reference and the calibration mic.”
Hello,
Thank you for the review!
Sorry that you've had such an experience. Please keep in mind that our support center was enjoying the Christmas and New Year holidays. For this very reason, we were unable to respond promptly. When you acquired the license, it was during an upgrade sale, not a full license sale. For this very reason, you have received an upgrade code instead of a full license code.
We have reached out to you regarding the purchase.
I hope this helps!
“after calibrating my room using Sonarworks Measurement Microphone and Software, the quality of my mixes was in a different realm.
Even though my control room is sound-treated, the attached screenshot of the frequency response curve shows, how much my room was off from being linear on all frequencies.
To make sure, the measurement was correct, I also measured my room, using a different software from another company: the resulting frequency response curve was almost identical.
The quality of my mixes as well as the confidence I have in my mixes improved dramatically.”
“I treated my home studio the best I could, and Sonarworks took it to the next level. My mixes are translating better than I could’ve imagined. Don’t know why I waited so long to get this!”
“I've since upgraded to include their MONITOR solution. Being able to quickly reference my track on simulated audio environments/devices has sped up my workflow and i can make mixing decisions on the fly as opposed to bouncing the track and playing it on other stereos or in the car for example.”
“The upgrade has been the best, being able to have calibration of my monitors, just as Sonarworks had already done with my hearing aids, seems incredible to me. If your room is treated, but not yet perfect, Sonarworks is what you need to achieve what is missing. In any case it will always be of great help to you. Hey! and the measurement microphone is the best worth having.”
