I walk you through from start to finish on how to use Sonarworks SoundID to FIX the sound in your home studio so that your mixes will translate better outside of your studio.

SoundID is software that measures the acoustic properties of your room and corrects the problems... or at least that is what it CLAIMS to do.

In this video, I put Sonarworks to the test and measure how good the room correction ACTUALLY is and walk you through every step of the process, so you can decide if room correction is worth pursuing.
