Sonarworks has updated its Reference 4 studio room/headphone calibration software to v4.1.6, adding a 32-bit plug-in in to the existing 64-bit one, enabling users with older DAW platforms to take advantage of Reference’s measurement and calibration capabilities.
Available in AU, AAX Native, RTAS and VST formats, the DAW plug-in uses proprietary technologies and advanced filtering algorithms to establish a common sonic reference point, enabling engineers, producers and musicians the ability to record, mix and master across multiple monitoring devices and environments. Additionally, users are now able to download the latest headphone profiles directly from the software itself, either through the DAW plug-in or in system-wide mode.
With 60 models added to the Reference 4 library, newly supported headphone models include offerings from AKG, Audio-Technica, Beats, Behringer, Focal, Fostex, Meze, Pioneer and Sennheiser.
‘We are on a constant mission to refine Reference and make it as easy to use as possible,’ says Sonarworks co-founder and VP, Martins Popelis, ‘A big part of this has been cultivating an active relationship with our user base and using its feedback to improve Reference with each update.’
In addition to feature upgrades, v4.1.6 also fixes routine bugs including system-wide over-power consumption, installer malfunctions and other miscellaneous functionality refinements.
