Product Overview
The IK Multimedia 280271 ARC System 2.5 with MEMS microphone is the first acoustic correction system that combines a super accurate MEMS measurement microphone, measurement software AND a correction plug-in to greatly improve the audio monitoring accuracy of speakers in any studio or room listening environment in an elegant, portable, affordable, easy to use and extremely professional solution.
With literally thousands of ARC-based studios worldwide, you can be confident you are making a sound choice.
IK Multimedia 280271 Includes:
- Professional measurement microphone
- Mic clamp
- Software license
IK Multimedia 280271 Features:
- The first DAW-based acoustic room correction plug-in
- Includes a measurement microphone, software andcorrection plug-in
- Based on Audyssey MultEQ® XT32 patented technologythat corrects frequency and phase distortions in multiple room points
- Improves clarity, stereo imaging and frequencyresponse for faster, more reliable mixing
- Improves the sound of any room - from bedroom studioto high-end control rooms
- Step by step measurement set-up can be made by anyone
- Perfect for the traveling engineer and on-the-spotcorrections
- 64-bit native plug-in compatibility
- Ultra-light and durable
- Stable over time: MEMS is not subject to the typicalfrequency response changes over time of ordinary condenser mics
- Much more resistant to humidity and temperaturevariations
- Precision crafted in Italy
