Audio professionals and audiophiles looking for intuitive speaker calibration for a multichannel setup will be impressed with the SONARWORKS SoundID Reference for Multichannel, a calibration plug-in and app delivering consistently accurate studio reference sound on your existing speakers, supporting 2.0 to 9.1.6 surround setups. SoundID effectively eliminates your speakers' sound coloration by setting their frequency response to be completely flat across all audible frequencies, ensuring that every mix translates regardless of the speakers or headphone your audience uses for monitoring. Mix with confidence and make music that sounds great everywhere.

After installing the software, you can proceed with your speaker calibration. A full surround speaker system takes under an hour to complete the measurement process using a flat-frequency-response microphone such as the SONARWORKS Calibration Measurement Mic (not included) or any similar mic. When the measurement is completed, save your speaker profile and apply correction using the plug-in in your favorite DAW, or use the SoundID Reference system-wide app to correct sound from any source on your computer. Besides ensuring a neutral sound, SoundID Reference offers other useful features including Custom Target, which allows you to make custom adjustments to the target curve in real time. And Translation Check helps you simulate your mix on a plethora of devices such as laptop speakers, phone speakers, car speakers, and more.

Q: 1. I've read some reviews on Amazon that Whibal cards aren't made the way they used to. Are they still made of solid plastic where the neutral grey color goes all the way through? Thanks

A: The WhiBal G7 White Balance Reference Gray Card is plastic and physically rugged--waterproof and scratchproof (color goes all the way through, not just a coating on top).

Q: 2. Does the RTA mic come with a case?

A: Yes

Q: 3. Is it have enought impedance output for 300 Omhs headphones?

A: To drive higher impedance headphones(such as 300 ohm phones) a amplifier usually needs to produce a higher voltage swing. This is not a case of having "enough impedance for 300 ohm headphones", but of having enough voltage. Having "enough" depends on the sensitivity of the 300 ohm headphones and the voltage output capability of the amplifier, and how loud you prefer to listen. This amplifier can produce a RMS voltage swing of no more than 4.2 volts. That may be enough if you have sensitive headphones (more than 100dB/volt) and listen at safe levels. However, if your phones have low sensitivity(less than 96 dB/volt)and you want to listen at hearing-damaging heavy metal levels, then this amp won't be powerful enough.

Q: 4. Can a SDI source and a HDMI source be fed to the monitor simultaneously and can you switch between the two feeds?

A: Yes. Two separate signals may be sent, but only one will be displayed at one time. Keep in mind that to receive 4K with SDI you will need to use all (4) BNC ins, with a 3G-SDI cable for each BNC.

Q: 5. Will the mono switch help detect if one of the stereo channels is out of phase? In other words, if the left channel is 180 degrees out of phase from the right, this can be difficult to detect with headphones, but if the channels are summed to mono, the cancellation should be audible in each ear. Is this the case with this mono switch?

A: THE ONLY THING THAT IS EFFECTED IS THE LOW FREQ. SIGNALS. ONE IN THE RT. EAR & ONE IN THE LEFT. TELLING THE DIFF. IS HARD ENOUGH WHEN THE SOUND IS COMING FROM SPEAKERS. MAKE SURE OF THE SOURCES ARE CORRECT BEFORE YOU START. AS MY DAD ALWAYS TOLD ME WAS KISSKEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID WITH LOVE DR PETE

Q: 6. What wires do I need to work these with my mac

A: The KRK V4S4 has a Combo Jack input. You can either use a cable that has XLR or 1/4 input that terminates with a 3.5mm input to plug into your laptop.For a pair of speakers use either of these.a href= https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1237752-REG/hosa_technology_hmx_006y_1_8_stereo_mini_to.html target= _blank https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1237752-REG/hosa_technology_hmx_006y_1_8_stereo_mini_to.html/aa href= https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/160640-REG/Hosa_Technology_CMP_159_Stereo_Mini_Male_to.html target= _blank https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/160640-REG/Hosa_Technology_CMP_159_Stereo_Mini_Male_to.html/aFor a single speakera href= https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/160643-REG/Hosa_Technology_CMS_110_Stereo_Mini_Male_to.html target= _blank https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/160643-REG/Hosa_Technology_CMS_110_Stereo_Mini_Male_to.html/aa href= https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/691059-REG/Hosa_Technology_XVM_101M_XVM_101M_Angled_3_5mm_to.html target= _blank https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/691059-REG/Hosa_Technology_XVM_101M_XVM_101M_Angled_3_5mm_to.html/a
