“The add-on really opened up the soundstage for me when listening on headphones. I used to be really cautious of stereo width when mixing my tracks, carefully panning channels not too far left and right, because I wasn't able to judge aspects like crosstalk and the behavior of certain frequencies at a distance. My environment (and the fact that I mostly produce music as a hobby after work or at night) unfortunately doesn't allow me to listen on monitors at higher volumes for extended periods, so - whilst certainly not a complete replacement for decent calibrated monitors - the Virtual Monitoring add-on is definitely a step up from just using SoundID on its own.
It's also great for watching movies or just listening to music on headphones. I wouldn't go back.”
“It’s a much needed add on! It’s miles ahead of the competition like waves reali and others. Tried them in conjunction with soundid in the past but never convinced me. Now I am a believer”
“As if the headphone correction wasn't already killer, having virtual monitoring available is a great way to check your mixes to ensure it translates properly!”
“The new virtual monitoring add on is awesome, I can more accurately hear the low end which has improved my mixes and got me to the finish line much quicker!”
“It makes the commercial songs that I’ve been listening to through the virtual reference, sound a bit echoey. When I change to system wide they sound fine.”
