A note on comparing the graphs - first, the size of the windows of both apps is different with Trinnov's windows being roughly half of the size of ARC - so, this should influence the size of the deviations in the graphs from the straight reference line and work in favor of Trinnov. Also, the scale of the graph is different - ARC's graph ranges from -15 to +15 db, and Trinnov's graph has a scale of -19 to +10 db - so ranges are close around 30 db for both, but still, I wouldn't say which one "clearly" does a better job just looking at these graphs in this way. Sorry for the critique and thanks for the video!

@sxproaudio 4 ай бұрын
It is briefly mentioned in the video that the scales are slightly different which makes the measurement a little tricky to perfectly compare visually but you can clearly see the frequency curves have similar characteristics. The important thing here is how it actually sounds, which isn't possible to demonstrate in the video but I summarise this information at the end. Thanks for watching!

Recently bought an ARC studio and currently demoing a Nova in my control room with Unity Audio Boulder MK2s.... I have to say they are both incredible ...Trinnov a little more 3D, a little more accurate but it is quite marginal to me. Id put it at maybe 10-15% better, does it justify the price difference!?. Both sound way better than Sonarworks that I've championed and used for years. Surprised me in all honesty. I'm keeping the ARC for low latency tracking until Trinnov hopefully sort that out!

@travelthebest2676 Trinnov is the king of room correction. I use it in all my studios and can trust the correction that is applied. Sonarworks in the same studio is so far off it actually makes for a worse listening environment. I know this because I have done the tests myself. It's laughable. Most people remove it after realising it's doing more bad than good. Arc studio looks a lot more accurate and much more similar to Trinnov a trusted industry professional room corrector. May not be the answer you wanted as a Sonarworks fan or user but it's cold hard truth and you asked me to elaborate. You are only as good an engineer as what you can hear. Room correction is one place you shouldn't compromise with the likes of Sonarworks.

@@alexbreyer6921Hehe….or maybe not😊 In order to accurately measure timing issues and phase in the sweetspot (how it sounds outside the sweetspot is not really interesting) you need to have two stable, fixed reference positions with a known distance from eachother (the software need a known referense to accurately compensate for the problems) and then measure the time difference between them. The Trinnov achieve this by having a mic with spaced capsules measuring in the sweetspot(You don’t move the mic during a Trinnov calibration) I don’t think you achieve the same result by moving a single capsule microphone away from the sweetspot and do a second sine sweep. I think the main reason for taking readings in multiple locations for ARC/Trinnov is to get an average reading of the frequency response in the area around the sweetspot.

In the ARC software, click on the EDIT button and change the Correction Type to "Sharp" to get a more detailed (i.e. flatter) correction. Leaving it on "Default" results in a less aggressive correction, which is what you compared to the Trinnov.
@sxproaudio
@sxproaudio 4 ай бұрын
Making the correction more aggressive results in more phase issues which is why the ARC doesn’t default to that setting. You are right to point out this setting as we didn’t mention it in the video and probably should have. However, the “sharp” setting is really only better if you have some large issues in specific narrow Q areas that you aren’t going to be able to live without, and need them at the cost of phase accuracy or increased latency. As such, the Trinnov still outperforms the ARC (as you would expect given the price point) but the ARC remains incredible, incredible value for money.

This is exactly what the ARC Studio is for - to take away the need to run a plugin either in your DAW or system. The ARC Studio actually sits in the analogue audio path and performs the correction.

All the correction options can be somewhat helpful (unless you hate what they do). But you still have to learn those. ARC seems to be well thought out for workflow and options. You could switch speakers and still be up and running in no time. (Unlike relying on the Adams.) It's nice to have the hardware option doing the correction.

Superb comment Alex, thank you. This wasn’t meant to be a super-in-detail look at both. We’ve obviously done this, but the video would start to become longer than we wanted at this stage. You can EQ the ARC, you’re correct, but it does have a fairly restricted number of EQ points to control, lending it more towards “broad-strokes” control than fine tuning. As such it’s great for selecting chunks of a frequency range and moving it to suit your taste, but it isn’t enough to grab a specific frequency at a specific Q and adjust only those. The DAC in the Trinnov is much, much better than the ARC, which is another reason why it costs more but also why it’s more suitable for those with higher-end speakers; they’re more likely to hear the differences in the DAC.

@@brianboyer9383 You do not understand. After calibration, you need to repeat the measurements, e.g. using the room eq wizard. What it shows are the predicted results. I know this, I've been doing it for 10 years.

@@maciejmironowicz2501 Umm…what? Perhaps what you’re describing used to be true for older Trinnov systems or may be necessary for other products but it wasn’t true for the ST2 and its not true for the Nova. You do the measurement(s) once, have the unit compute the response, and that’s it - correction complete. The process shown in this video is all that’s needed. There are no predicted curves.

@@brianboyer9383 What I mean is that when comparing trinnov with arc4, you need to take measurements after both corrections. And see who does better. What don't you understand, gentlemen?
