Sonarworks partners with Avid

Ultra low latency for any source

Process the room calibration directly in your interface. No need for SoundID Reference app or plugin, ensuring the lowest possible latency from any audio source - DAW, systemwide audio or live instruments.

Multiple Profile Exports

Export multiple profiles like Dolby Atmos and switch between these profiles directly from DADman or from the interface, with no need to use SoundID Reference plugin.

Your speakers. Calibrated.

Utilize the full power of SPQ processing in your MTRX. Calibrate more than one speaker set and guarantee consistent sound quality across all your speakers.

SoundID Reference Measure

Adjusted measurement flow for AVID MTRX family and DAD family interfaces with SPQ DSP. If the user intends to export the calibration directly to their interfaces, they need to check the “I have an AVID MTRX or DAD family interface with SPQ processing” in the view “Select your speaker configuration” before the measurement flow. If the checkbox is selected, the user can still use the resulting calibration profile in SoundID Reference standalone app or the plugin, but the calibration data is also loaded in the DADman profile during the export process.

SoundID Reference

• Direct calibration export available for AVID MTRX family interfaces and DAD family interfaces with SPQ DSP. Previously, the EQ parameters had to be adjusted manually. This update let's the user directly imprint the calibration in the DADman profile. Please note that a new measurement of your system will be required to use this export flow.
• Fixed the issue of LFE channel being calibrated to 0 dB relative volume despite selecting “My LFE channel is set to +10 dB” option in SoundID Reference Measure during the calibration process. This issue was present in the SoundID Reference export flow in versions 5.7.3 and 5.8.0.
• Merged the “AVID MTRX Studio” and “AVID MTRX with SPQ” export options into one: “AVID MTRX family with SPQ DSP”. Renamed “DAD AX32 with SPQ” to “DAD family with SPQ DSP”.
• Fixed inconsistent logic for the Listening Spot correction panel. When the correction is disabled, users see volume and time differences between the channels. Once the correction is enabled, the relevant delay and gain values are applied, so that the difference between the channels is 0.
• [macOS] “Restart playback engine” button activates a sudo command that restarts the CoreAudio service. This can be used in case there are any driver-related issues resulting in no audio output or no calibration applied. Please note that audio should not be running when this button is pressed. The user will be asked for their password by the operating system.
• The Virtual Monitoring panel is made more reactive to user actions and updated license status.
• Added onboarding tooltip regarding the Virtual Monitoring feature.
• Minor bugfixes and UI improvements.

SoundID Reference plugin

• Fixed the issue of LFE channel being calibrated to 0 dB relative volume despite selecting “My LFE channel is set to +10 dB” option in SoundID Reference Measure during the calibration process. This issue was present in the SoundID Reference plugin in versions 5.7.3 and 5.8.0.
• Updated the headphone search so that the search query carries over from the manufacturer selection screen to the model selection screen.
• Adjusted the “Filter type” panel height.
• Fixed inconsistent logic for the Listening Spot correction panel. When the correction is disabled, users see volume and time differences between the channels. Once the correction is enabled, the relevant delay and gain values are applied, so that the difference between the channels is 0.
• For a multichannel calibration profile, if only the time or only the volume domain is corrected in the Listening Spot correction panel, the status of the correction is titled “Custom” instead of “Enabled” or “Disabled”.
• Fixed an issue of misaligned elements in the License information panel.
• Minor bugfixes and UI improvements.
