IK Multimedia ARC System 2.5 Crossgrade Plug-In Software, Download

Overhaul your studio's sound with the ARC System 2.5 Crossgrade Plug-In Software, a professional-grade acoustic correction solution that transforms any listening environment into an optimal sound stage. This advanced system is the culmination of innovative technology, combining a highly precise MEMS measurement microphone (available separately), intuitive measurement software, and a sophisticated correction plug-in. The result is a significant enhancement in the accuracy of your studio monitors, ensuring what you hear is a true reflection of your audio without the coloration of room acoustics.

The ARC System 2.5 stands out as a high-quality upgrade from its predecessors, incorporating new features and improvements that elevate your audio production to professional standards. Its compatibility with both Macintosh and PC/Windows operating systems extends its versatility, making it an accessible tool for a broad spectrum of audio professionals and enthusiasts.

Employing the patented Audyssey MultEQ XT32 technology, the ARC System 2.5 goes beyond mere frequency response correction. It addresses both frequency and time domain issues, preserving the phase response of your audio material. This means you can trust your ears when mixing, as the ARC System effectively removes your room from the equation, allowing your creativity to flourish without the interference of room-induced sound artifacts.

This user-friendly system is a breakthrough solution for acoustic room correction, offering an affordable alternative to expensive and permanent acoustic treatments. Whether you're working in a home studio or a professionally treated space, the ARC System 2.5 will make a noticeable improvement in your monitoring environment.

Setting up the ARC System is a straightforward process, requiring just a few easy steps and a minimum of 7 measurements to achieve room correction. For those seeking the highest standard of precision, up to 16 measurements can be taken for ultimate room optimization. The software then generates a correction algorithm that can be applied via the ARC correction plug-in on your DAW's master bus, ensuring what you hear is accurate and reliable.

The Correction Plug-in is the heart of the ARC System 2.5, allowing you to edit, mix, and master with confidence. When it's time to export your mix, simply bypass the plug-in to ensure your music translates accurately across various playback systems.

Experience a truly new listening environment with ARC, which provides a consistent frequency response across the entire spectrum, restoring tonal balance and giving you better control over your mixes. Low-end alterations caused by small rooms are eliminated, and the improved low-frequency resolution, now 4 times better down to 10 Hz, ensures a flat low-end response.

The ARC System 2.5 also enhances the stereo image focus for symmetrical high-end control rooms, and with perceptive adjustments, you can tailor the frequency response to match the unique characteristics of your hearing and room. The Virtual Monitoring feature allows you to simulate different listening devices, ensuring your mix sounds perfect on any system.

The Monitor Control panel adds a suite of essential tools, including a main volume knob, DIM and MUTE switches, and a listening mode selector for quick reference checks in Stereo, Mono, or Side modes. This creates a flexible "Control Room" workflow for superior listening and mixing accuracy.

Pair the ARC System 2.5 with IK Multimedia's iLoud MTM monitors for an unmatched combination of sound quality and acoustic correction. Owners of iLoud MTM monitors, which include an ARC 2.5 MEMS microphone for self-calibration, qualify for the software upgrade, offering a comprehensive solution for professional mixing in any setting.

Embrace the ARC System 2.5 Crossgrade Plug-In Software and forever enhance the sound quality of your studio, ensuring your audio productions are heard exactly as intended, in any environment.
