"ARC Studio Processor only - includes ARC 4, ARC Studio processor, no microphone included Trust what you hear Your room can have a big impact on how you hear your music. Room structure, dimensions, walls, and furniture can all change the frequency and timing balance of what you hear. This makes it really difficult to correctly balance your mixes without having audition them on lots of systems and spaces. ARC Studio orrects these issues, ensuring your work translates properly everywhere. Using a stand-alone processor, this correction can be applied to any studio monitors in any studio without regard for DAW or operating system limitations. You’ll mix faster and with less effort, and your work will translate better than ever. How it works Measure your space using the ARC 4 software and included MEMS microphone connected to any audio interface with a phantom-powered microphone input. The ARC software guides you step-by-step through a series of measurements in minutes, and can be repeated for multiple monitors or listening positions. Once the measurement process is complete, the correction is transferred to the ARC Studio processor for latency-free, set and forget correction. An all-new listening experience By measuring your room across a 3D space around the listening position, IK’s award-winning ARC technology identifies and corrects problematic issues while avoiding to drastically EQ the room overall. Only the offending issues are corrected, maintaining the natural sonic quality of the monitoring system. Sonically invisible Since your monitoring path quality is crucial, ARC Studio uses truly high end A/D and D/A conversion stages for total sonic transparency. And it connects to your monitors with a power-safe relay-based hard bypass - when bypassed it’s completely removed from your signal chain, protecting you from sudden power-related pops. A/B/C/D… your mixes ARC Studio also delivers ARC 4's new X-MONITOR options, emulating the frequency and phase response of over 20 iconic studio monitors and popular speakers and phones, with breathtakingly true-to-life results. With over 20 profiles included, a single pair of monitors lets you test your mix on different reference systems instantly. With ARC Studio, you’ll supercharge your acoustics, your workflow and best of all, your results."
