Product Information

SoundID Reference for Headphones is the definitive software solution for creators who demand perfect mix translation while working on headphones. In a world where professional studios are moving into bedroom setups and mobile rigs, this software ensures that your monitoring remains consistent and accurate, regardless of which headphones you are wearing.

Every pair of headphones has a unique frequency response that colors your sound—boosting bass or masking harsh high-end. SoundID Reference removes these unwanted colorations by applying a precise calibration profile that flattens the response across all audible frequencies. With over 500+ pre-measured profiles for the world's most popular headphone models, you can instantly turn your existing gear into a high-end, flat-response monitoring system. Mix with the confidence that your artistic decisions will sound exactly as intended on car stereos, laptops, and smartphones.
Key Features
  • 500+ Headphone Profiles: Ready-to-use calibration presets for almost every major brand (Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, Audio-Technica, Sony, etc.).
  • Translation Check: Save hours of "car tests" by simulating how your mix will sound on 20+ different devices, including smartphones, laptops, and hi-fi systems.
  • Custom Target Curves: Real-time adjustment tools allow you to nudge the flat response to match your personal hearing preference or a specific target.
  • Three Filter Modes: Choose Zero Latency for tracking, Mixed for general production, or Linear Phase for transparent mastering.
  • Systemwide & Plugin Version: Calibrate your entire computer's audio (Spotify, YouTube, etc.) with the standalone app, or use the DAW plugin for precision mixing.
  • Apple Silicon Native: Fully optimized for M1, M2, and M3 Mac chips for ultra-low CPU consumption.
  • Multi-Device Activation: A single license can be activated on up to 3 different computers.
