Virtual Monitoring works well, it has a more natural sound than the plugin I was previously using and it’s good to have it integrated in the plugin. I almost always have to work on location nowadays and SoundID Reference/ Virtual Monitoring have proven to be invaluable. Mixes translate very well, so I’d definitely recommend it as a very useful add on.

As for the Virtual Monitoring plugin itself, it works perfectly and is a great addition to SoundID for headphones. The only thing I’d change is a small UI detail: when I manually adjust the frequency response, the studio and monitor visuals disappear. They should stay visible at all times, as their absence suggests that Virtual Monitoring is no longer active. Currently, the studio graphics only appear when the 'Flat Target' option is selected.

It was a little bit hard to find in the settings, the UI can be a better.

I've been using Sound ID Reference for several years. I recently purchased the Virtual Monitoring module, which sounds fantastic. I've tried similar solutions from competitors, but Sonarworks is the best. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen at Sonarworks, for the great work. Best regards, Martin.

Very useful tool for checking mixes in different listening environments without needing additional software. The translation feels more realistic compared to standard headphones. Easy to use and effective, especially for producers who work a lot in headphones. Definitely recommended

I purchased this to check the sound field of my favorite Sound Reference ID. I was able to experience the difference in sound field with three different speakers. However, even though I have achieved a flat frequency response through headphone calibration, this add-on changes the sound frequency response too much. It's fine for checking the sound characteristics of car audio, TVs, and laptops, but for simulating a studio environment, I think a frequency response closer to flat would be more suitable for the intended use.

Useful as extension to other virtual-studio-emulations like realphones etc., somwhat limited in comparison to them. More emulations and more settings options would be fine. Bur working good with my personal sonarworks headphone profile.
