Product Description
The IK Multimedia ARC X Advanced Room Correction Software & Microphone is the ultimate solution for transforming any studio environment into a perfectly tuned monitoring space. Combining cutting-edge acoustic calibration with intelligent tuning, advanced voicing options, and virtual monitoring capabilities, ARC X ensures your mixes translate flawlessly across all playback systems. Whether you are working in a small home studio or a professional control room, ARC X provides unmatched sonic accuracy and complete control over your sound.
ARC X goes beyond traditional room correction by using IK’s proprietary VRM™ (Volumetric Response Modeling) technology to capture a precise 3D acoustic snapshot of your room. This allows the software to apply phase-coherent, frequency, and phase corrections that eliminate room coloration and deliver a professional-grade monitoring experience. With flexible tuning options, you can tailor the tonal balance to your preferences, from surgical neutrality to enhanced musicality, making ARC X adaptable to any creative workflow.
One of the standout features of ARC X is its voicing emulation, which lets you instantly experience the sound of iconic studio monitors and consumer playback systems. This virtual monitoring capability enables you to reference your mixes across industry standards without needing multiple physical monitors. The software also offers real-time monitor control, allowing you to switch between profiles and calibration modes with ease, and supports latency-free correction directly on compatible devices to reduce CPU load.
Automated Room Correction
ARC X automatically measures your room’s acoustic response using the included measurement microphone and applies intelligent corrections to remove unwanted resonances and coloration. This process creates a pristine listening environment where you can trust every detail of your mix.
Advanced Tuning Flexibility
With nine expertly designed target curves and selectable phase modes, ARC X lets you fine-tune your monitoring environment to match your personal taste or project requirements. Whether you want a flat, neutral response or a more musical character, ARC X adapts effortlessly.
Voicing Emulation and Virtual Monitoring
Experience the sound of over 20 industry-standard reference monitors and consumer playback devices through precise frequency and phase emulation. This feature allows you to test your mixes across different systems from a single listening position, saving time and money.
Seamless Integration and Control
ARC X supports third-party monitors through ARC Studio hardware or the ARC X plug-in, making it a versatile solution for any setup. Real-time control over profiles and voicings ensures a smooth workflow, while on-speaker operation delivers latency-free correction without taxing your computer.
