Overview

Experience studio-grade sound with calibrated monitors and headphones.

Unlock the full potential of your multichannel monitoring setup with Sonarworks SoundID Reference Multichannel and the Apollo monitor correction add-on bundle. This comprehensive software solution delivers consistently accurate studio reference sound across your existing headphones, speakers and multichannel systems—ensuring you hear every nuance of your mixes with pinpoint precision.

Achieve Perfectly Flat Frequency Response

With SoundID Reference's applied calibration profiles, you'll experience a completely flat frequency response across all audible frequencies. This emulates the neutral-sounding characteristics of professional reference monitors, allowing you to make critical mixing decisions with confidence. Whether you're fine-tuning a stereo mix or immersing yourself in an intricate surround sound project, the software calibrates your audio system to provide an honest, uncolored representation of your tracks.

Tailor Your Monitoring Experience

Gain full control over your monitoring environment with SoundID Reference's versatile tools. Support for up to 9.1.6 channels ensures compatibility with the latest multichannel formats, while three filter modes—Zero Latency, Mixed and Linear Phase—let you optimize for low-latency or superior phase coherence. Additional DSP processing controls like Mono, Dry/Wet and Safe Headroom offer further flexibility to shape your monitoring signal.

Streamline Your Workflow With Seamless Integration

Experience the convenience of seamless software and hardware integration with SoundID Reference. The included Apollo monitor correction add-on allows you to apply calibration profiles directly to your Universal Audio Apollo X Gen 1 or Gen 2 interface, eliminating the need for additional DSP resources. With zero-latency plugin processing and near-zero latency system-wide calibration on Windows, you can maintain a natural, responsive monitoring experience without distracting delays.

Access over 500 ready-to-use headphone calibration profiles or measure your own speakers for precise calibration.
