If, like most home recordists, you’re dealing with a less-than-perfect acoustic space for your mixing and recording, IK Multimedia’s ARC (Advanced Room Correction) system could be a godsend. In this ARC video course, mixing guru Eli Krantzberg walks you through the ARC system and shows you all you need to know about using it to calibrate your monitors for your particular space, in essence largely taking your acoustically challenged room out of the equation. The result is mixes that translate better to every environment. These ARC videos are designed for new IK Multimedia ARC users. Eli begins with an overview of the ARC system, explaining what it is, what it does, and why one would need it. You’ll also learn about the necessary components involved and what additional equipment you may need. Then he outlines the initial steps of the procedure, such as setting the correct mic profile and mic positions, configuring input/output routing, adjusting levels, and more.
