IK Multimedia’s ARC Studio room correction promises a monitor upgrade like no other…
Last month, IK Multimedia released ARC Studio, a standalone hardware processor for its newly-updated ARC 4 acoustic room correction software that promises to “instantly upgrade” your studio monitors.
To give you a primer on the concept, room correction software compensates for the acoustics of the room your monitors are placed in by analysing the acoustic profile, identifying problematic frequencies and adjusting the output of your monitors accordingly. Everything from a room’s size and shape to the furniture in it can dramatically affect its acoustics; room correction accounts for this to achieve a neutral frequency response.
