Professional audio monitoring reaches new heights with the Sonarworks SoundID Reference Studio Edition bundle, combining cutting-edge calibration software with Universal Audio's Apollo Monitor Correction technology and the precision XREF20 measurement microphone. This comprehensive system delivers studio-grade accuracy for both headphones and speakers, featuring pre-calibrated profiles for over 500 headphone models and advanced speaker measurement capabilities for stereo setups.
The SoundID Reference software provides exceptional flexibility through its three filter modes (Zero Latency, Mixed, and Linear Phase) and comprehensive DSP controls including Mono, Dry/Wet, and Safe Headroom adjustments. Musicians and engineers benefit from MIDI mapping functionality, user presets for quick switching between configurations, and the Translation Check feature that simulates over 20 different playback devices and environments. The software supports both flat target curves and custom adjustments, ensuring personalised calibration that meets individual workflow requirements.
Apollo Monitor Correction runs directly on Apollo X hardware with near-zero latency performance, supporting simultaneous calibration for one speaker profile and up to two headphone profiles. The system includes calibrated bass management for 2.1 stereo systems with subwoofers, while the included XREF20 microphone features multi-angle calibration profiles at 0°, 30°, and 90° positions. Compatible with macOS Big Sur through Sonoma and Windows 10/11, the bundle requires +48v phantom power and supports sample rates from 44.1kHz to 192kHz, with activation keys valid for up to three devices.
