We highly recommend treating your room before calibrating your speakers. Proceed with the Measurement Process – After installing the software you can proceed with your speaker calibration.

Finish your Setup – After the measurement is completed, save your speaker profile and apply correction using the plugin in your favourite DAW or use the SoundID Reference app to correct sound from any source on your computer.
