I've added the plugin, which led me through the registration process. If no one objects, I would like to claim the first one (AQMGU7-57W53J-ZQ1965-4QBTMP)? (If no one objects by tomorrow morning, I will try to use it.) Anyhow, thanks for everyone who can try this out and I'm hoping for any feedback (good or bad). We tested it on Ubuntu 18.10 with Bitwig and Ardour, seemed fine, since it is all X11 based I guess KDE should work as well but who knows. I'd be very interrested in the feedback, so if possible post it here or mail Martins.Р”Р„s I said, we have only a 64bit version, built against an old enough glibc. If more keys are needed, please contact our QA guy. Maybe you can post when you use them so that others do not try the same key.

Since we don't have an installer for Linux, here are 4 trial keys (since I counted 4 interested persons in this thread): Lg0DNwBPZq), since we need to do the landing page for Linux which is currently not present, but I wanted to share this with everyone here asap. I currently put the plugin on a Google Drive share here (. Originally launched in January at the NAMM Show 2015, the Sonarworks REFERENCE 3.1 plug-in has received tremendous positive feedback from early users in online music production communities as well as from award-winning professionals.So with the 4.1.5.27 release of the Sonarworks Reference 4, we also will try to beta the Linux plugin. Р”В«ut they also offer a 21-day full-functionality free trial is available on the company website.Р”Р‡ind out more about the REFERENCE 3.1 headphone calibration software. Currently, a single license for Sonarworks REFERENCE 3.1 headphone calibration plug-in costs $69/69РІвЂљВ¬ and individual headphone measurement service is available at a special introductory price of $44/44РІвЂљВ¬. The plug-in for digital audio workstations (DAWs) is offered in AU, AAX Native, RTAS and VST standards and is compatible with both OSX and Windows. Headphone Models that work with REFERENCE 3.1 Other features include being able to toggle the headphone calibration on/off and also a wet/dry mix control to adjust the level of calibration. Basically you download the plugin, select your headphone make and thatРІР‚в„ўs it.

#SONARWORKS REFERENCE 3 HEADPHONE CALIBRATION PLUGIN HOW TO#

How to use REFERENCE 3.1Р”Р„ll you need is the plugin. It stands to reason that for the REFERENCE 3.1 headphone calibration to be a success they would have had to analyse the exact frequency response of each model they have a profile (preset) for and determine each oneРІР‚в„ўs tonal characteristics and precisely correct the headphone frequency response where needed. How the headphone calibration works with REFERENCE 3.1 is that the plugin has presets for different models of headphones so all you need to do is select the specific model you are using and Sonarworks say this will ensure that your headphones will deliver a frequency response as if they were perfectly neutral speakers. But they donРІР‚в„ўt! REFERENCE 3.1 claims to fix this.

ItРІР‚в„ўs the old debate about what is a really flat response? All monitoring is subjective to a point and if all studio headphones were 100% flat theyРІР‚в„ўd surely all sound the same. The truth is many mid-priced studio headphones РІР‚вЂњ ranging between 3 and R 5 K РІР‚вЂњ tend to favour a scooped frequency response with the highs and lows being subtly boosted.

You may be wondering why youРІР‚в„ўd need headphone calibration software if you have bought studio headphones. Sonarworks have created a plugin called REFERENCE 3.1 which they say can deliver accurate studio sound on most models of headphones currently being used by sound professionals.
