Really fast service and my product got shipped almost right away. I ordered the SoundID reference for headphones and speakers with the measurement microphone and started setting it up as soon as I recieved it. Very easy setup and initial thoughts are that it is totally worth every penny! I don't think I've ever had a product that makes such a big difference to my home studio, without it being super expensive. I am finally able to trust my mixes!

Though It took me a while to save up to purchase this God sent product from sonaworks but I'm glad I did eventually cos this software is definately a game changer for me as an African bedroom producer/mix & mastering enginner based in the US. everything was smooth sailing from the purchase to the download to basement room calibration and my cheap headphones. thumbs up sonarworks. you rock!!!!!!!!

I love sonarworks. I don't have any acoustic treatment at my studio, and there's no doubt that even with sonarworks on it is necessary, but wow... after I did the setup and activated my software it blew my mind! I can hear so much accurate now... Thank you sonarworks!

Systemwide calibration through standalone desktop soft is full of bugs. Despite years of complaining, some major problems - like SIDR not starting after computer power-saving mode and the inability to modify saved calibration targets - remain fully dealt with, and issues still persist. Offered workarounds would require in some instances, for example, user editing Windows registry files or allowing Sonarworks service to remote access user's computer via third-party software. In my opinion Sonarworks delegates problems to end-users which is plainly put rude, yet cost-effective for SW. When SoundID Reference works, it really does improve sound quality and seems to be very effective in managing sub-100Hz room modes. Sadly, other major shortcomings in the software drag the evaluation down.

I have zero complaints about this software. Sonarworks has really helped my mixes. Easy to understand interface and many headphone profiles. I highly recommend Sonarworks!

Had my DT1990 Pro with balanced ear pads sent in for calibration. There was a significant difference in the custom calibration profile I was supplied compared with the average ones available in Sound ID. Highly recommend getting the custom calibration done. I like to use the custom calibration in conjunction with the ‘smiley face’ target curve and I add a couple extra db in the low end because I like the warmer sound for my electronic dance music. Sure I’m beefing up the lows which seems counterproductive, but I know the phones are flat as a pancake first , so I know where I am. Excellent customer service from Marco. Thankyou. Stu.

I am extremely happy with Sonarworks and everything around the company itself. I checked different sources for reviews or opinions on the matter and Sonarworks kept popping up as the go-to. I checked the official website and everything was easy to find and I had no problem searching and finding the information I was looking for. I like the slick and clean website design, it looks amazing and super professional! Because I am not a professional I don't have too much cash I can spend on audio-related programs/devices. I found a discount code after some time and purchased the software from Sonarworks directly. In my opinion, the price is fair for the quality and feel/look you get compared to a lot of other companies. I am happy I chose Sonarworks because it works exactly how they described it before I purchased anything.

SonarWorks was super easy to find, download, install, and apply to my favorite DAW. Doesn't take up a lot of space and it was relatively cheap for the amount of improvement it gives my mixes.

Le site de Sonaworks est vraiment très riche en informations. J’ai pu commander très facilement la configuration qui m’était nécessaire. Les délais de livraison ont été très rapides pour le micro.

The calibration is really hard to get right. I used a mic stand and did 3 calibrations, all of which sound totally different. I chose the best sounding one but it seems less scientific and more guesswork than I thought.

Hello, Thank you for the review! The calibration can differ between the measurements due to the fact that the microphone could have been positioned slightly higher or lower between the measurements. This can impact the result ever so slightly. Also, increasing or decreasing the input and output levels might also have an impact thus the output level should be set to a conversation level for the most accurate results. If there are any guides or help needed, please reach out to us and we'll be happy to help!

Although pricey it is completely worth it for video editing and ensuring accurate delivery. Also love the feature that emulates other systems to get an idea of what it will sound like. Absolutely love the product.

I found the app and video directions for calibrating my monitor speakers incredibly efficient and practical however the firmware / updates needed to make my Mac OS compatible with certain bugs and issues was challenging and required a fair bit of navigating through the sonar works website before i could address these issues. I feel that could have been more easily addressed if that is generally the case. Since updating this however I have had no more issues and look forward to more positive experiences.

A club speaker profile would be a great addition. Maybe an amusement park profile or Dj PA system.
