Sonarworks SoundID Reference for Headphones now 30% off for accurate mixing on the go

Sonarworks has introduced a limited-time discount on its SoundID Reference for Headphones software, now available for $69, down from $99 until March 29. Designed to deliver consistent and accurate monitoring, the software aims to help producers achieve better mix translation across different playback systems.

SoundID Reference works by calibrating headphones to a flat frequency response, effectively reducing coloration and inconsistencies. By emulating the response of neutral studio monitors, it allows users to make more reliable mixing decisions, whether working in a studio or on the move.

The software includes calibration profiles for over 500 headphone models, ensuring broad compatibility across popular brands. For users seeking higher precision, Sonarworks also offers individual calibration, delivering accuracy within +/-0.9 dB across the frequency spectrum while compensating for left and right channel variations.

SoundID Reference integrates seamlessly into production workflows through both a DAW plugin and a systemwide application. The plugin supports VST, AU, and AAX formats, enabling use during tracking, mixing, and mastering, while the systemwide app applies calibration across all audio playback on a computer.

Additional features include customizable target curves, three filter modes for different latency and phase requirements, and a Translation Check tool that simulates various listening environments such as smartphones, laptops, and consumer earbuds.

By addressing one of the most common challenges in music production—mix translation—SoundID Reference provides a practical solution for producers working across multiple setups. With its current discount, it stands out as a valuable tool for achieving consistent, professional results regardless of the listening environment.
