Professional audio monitoring reaches new heights with the SoundID Reference bundle for Universal Audio's Apollo X Gen 1 and Gen 2 interfaces. This comprehensive package merges SoundID Reference Studio Edition with the Apollo Monitor Correction Add-on under a single licence key, providing reliable and consistent calibration across all your audio systems for studio-grade reference monitoring.
SoundID Reference Studio Edition brings precise calibration software that maintains consistent studio reference sound through your existing speakers and headphones, featuring presets for over 500 supported headphone models. The software applies accurate frequency response targeting designed to emulate neutral-sounding speakers, ensuring flat and consistent sound reproduction. Enhanced control features include three filter modes (Zero Latency, Mixed, and Linear Phase), DSP processing controls (Mono, Dry/Wet, and Safe Headroom), plus user presets for seamless switching between predefined device and channel combinations.
The Apollo Monitor Correction Add-on operates calibration directly on Apollo X hardware, supporting multiple calibrated outputs for one speaker profile and up to two headphone profiles depending on your model. This add-on provides calibrated bass management for 2.1 stereo systems and supports advanced target modes including Flat, Dolby Atmos Music, custom curves, and Translation Check for device emulation capabilities.
