Overview

Professional studio headphone calibration software for reliable mixes in the studio or on the go.

Most headphones are held back by physical limitations, but with Sonarworks' Reference 3 software, you can measure those limitations and create a digital profile to correct them through processing in a DAW plug-in. With the advanced technology of our DAW plug-in, you get these results with shocking simplicity and absolute accuracy.

Headphone calibration is the process of measuring and adjusting the frequency response of headphones in order to precisely match flat sounding studio monitors in a well treated studio. Standard studio headphones are transformed into perfectly-engineered precision devices. By giving yourself the gift of accurate sound, you can mix and engineer with total confidence. The transition from mixing on studio monitors to headphones has never been smoother. Not all of life happens in comfortable studios. Take your reference sound with you. Sonarworks' Reference 3 delivers the accuracy you need, anywhere you are. Bring your headphones; bring your laptop. That’s it.
