“Five days after my purchase my package with the microphone arrived at home. The software did a great job, guiding me through the measurment process. And what a differnce it made. The boomy bass was completely gone and the sound gained a lot of clarity.
Plus: i exported the correction curve to my RME UFX III and load it to the Room EQ in TotalMix there. So i am able to hear the corrected profile without SoundID running on my PC.
Minus: It is not possible to export the correction curve of my Headphones and use them in TotalMix as well. This should really not be a big thing to change. Will award the last star, whe this is possible after a software update.”
“I bought a license with the microphone and created a profile for my speakers. And this also was absolutely great. I gave me just what I was missing since I could not afford rebuilding the room I work in.”
“The new sound took some time to get used to as I have worked with my speakers a long time. Once I got used to it I feel a lot more comfortable mixing my tracks and get a much better result especially in the bass”
“Excellent software and easy to use measurement microphone. This gave my listening experience a real upgrade. I don't want to work without this. But: I find it a high priced. Extra charge for add ons - why? I paid a lot.”
“I had an audio engineer advise me on sound conditioning my room and I dialed it in really well with deliberately placed sound panels and bass traps. I was pretty happy with my room sound but wanted to see if it could be better, and wow after applying SoundId the sound is much clearer and balanced. I hadn't realized there was a build up of lower mids and my the stereo field seems much clearer now.”
“Sonarworks worked for me, when other similar software programs I tried did not. With other programs I found online, I could note even get to step one. That's what makes Sonarworks great. It takes a complex process and breaks it into managemenble steps. Just follow the steps. Repeat them when you need to. Stop and start again as often and whenever you like. It works at your learning pace. In the end, it will give you an accurate measurement of the acoustics of your room. NOT your stereo. But your room. Use that knowledge to either treat your room, adjust your speaker placement; or use other devices (EQ) to improve your rooms acoustics. Sonarworks does what it does better than anything else I have seen, read about or tried. It worked flawlessly.”
“It's been a long time I'm hesitating on this purchase but I don't know why. Since I sat up the room correction it took some weeks to get used to the new sound bit since then my first mixes on new tracks sounds absolutely better than before I got on early production stages. Using it with UAD Apollo integration and it's insane how smooth it works! Love it!”
