Overview

Hear the mix, not the headphones.

SoundID Reference for Headphones applies a correction profile for your model, pulling its frequency response onto a flat target voiced like neutral-sounding speakers. The result is a consistent reference on headphones you already own, for engineers, producers and musicians who mix on them. It runs as a DAW plugin or as a standalone app that calibrates all computer audio. Your pair must be a supported model or individually calibrated by Sonarworks, and it needs an internet connection, as offline use is not supported.
