Nick Blanc Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Already using it. I have my studio in my very suboptimal living room. I'm not putting up ugly (or less ugly but still nothing to look at) soundproofing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sort of reminded me of the Swiss Alps on a sunny day. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVbene Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) Thanks for the info, couldn’t resist! Now let‘s see if this calibration file for the MEMS mic that someone created on gearspace works. I was about to buy a measurement mic anyway, quite cheeky that IK Multimedia don’t offer such a file on their own. I also want to use it outside of ARC… Edited February 3 by TVbene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mibby Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) I used this after finishing off my basement studio last year and it worked great. My beef with this software is that it doesn't have a "system wide" capability - you can only use it in your DAW as a plugin. So I really just used it for measuring the best potions and settings for my monitors and sub with no intention of using the correction, and it worked great. I listen to Tidal and YouTube for referencing so I don't use it. It's a big dedicated space and I have the luxury of being able to move my listening position around as well as the monitors. After I get all the gear and crap back into the space and add some acoustic treatment, I'll re-measure then. But for now, I'm happy and it's world's better than where I started! (I wish I had the software when I was mixing for years in my unfinished basement so I could have taken before/after measurements.) I started here, where I wanted my listening position to be: After after weeks of moving things around and tweaking settings on my subwoofer and monitors, got here.
