“I really like the SoundID Reference Virtual Monitoring Add-On—it has significantly improved my mixing and mastering decisions when working on headphones. I can’t imagine working without it anymore. However, the price feels too high, especially considering the core product struggled with stability and crashes for years. Offering only a €10 discount on Black Friday also felt underwhelming. This should have been a free update as a goodwill gesture to loyal customers.”
“Virtual monitoring Add-On is a good addition to the Sonarworks software. It helps to understand sound differences in multiple environments. It is a convenient solution to check your music and mixes in a different situations, which otherwise is not possible.”
“It just makes mixing on the go so much easier! It’s perfectly integrated with my Logic setup, so I don’t really have to think about anything else than music.”
“This is a great addition to the software. To be able to very quickly flip through different listening environments and get an accurate idea of how the mix will sound is a huge time saver. I’m no longer wasting time going on drives to check my mix then going back and making adjustments. I can stay in the flow and work far more effectively staying at my work station.”
“I mix primarily with the virtual monitors on and finally check translation on the tv, phone, car and tablet provided in the software. I’m forced to mix on headphones at home and this is so good that I forget I’m on headphones (BD 1770 Pro).”
