Your reaction to the corrected sound is glorious!

Grigor: You literally made a video about the _exact_ thing I'm trying to do, and this isn't the first time. I think it has to do with the fact that those of us 'in the trenches' have similar needs! I'm just now getting into this software and am blown away by what an effective, simple improvement it is. Cheers!

That was pretty much my reaction too!! LOVE the magic that is Sonarworks. I have 5 but forgot about the listening bus! D’oh! Thanks for the reminder!

U a gem Gregor, the reaction video was priceless, gunna correct my room tn! thanks!

Thank you Gregor, I'm already using Sonarworks for my HP monitoring (and Goodhertz Canopener Studio) with tremendous success and am preparing to purchase the room correction module and mic. I believe the new version (Sound ID Reference) has simplified the room correction process, but in any case, you've shown this is a very worthwhile process. TWO THUMBS UP!

I've been using Sonar Works for headphones for a while now. After seeing your reaction, Im gonna upgrade. Thanks!!!

Watching you react at the end made my week!

Great video! I don't have Sonarworks, but I do have Waves Nx. I didn't even know about the listen bus! 🤯 I was putting my Nx plugin on the stereo out bus and then having to turn the plugin off every time I exported a mixdown. After watching this video, I enabled the listen bus and put the Nx plugin on the listen bus. It's absolutely perfect now, and I don't ever have to remember to turn off the plugin! Sagenhaft!

Great Timing Gregor! I just got this kit and set it up on Thursday. Love the results. Now I need to learn how to use the listening bus so I can take the plug in off the Main Out channel.

Man, great to have this. I used to have to do a lot of tricks to achieve a similar thing in logic, and very inconvenient. It would be nice though to be tied to the output of the main out. I for example switch between monitors and headphones, and always need to switch in both outs separately. I cannot think of a reason when you would want both heard at the same time. Also this feature is really missing from the Project page! Would be great to have it there too, it is as, if not more important to have calibrated speakers during mastering (also worse if the correction ends up in the final render by accident).

awesome video Gregor!!!

Gregor seems like the kid who mom would punish him with saying "no studying for you today'. He would then burst into tears. His intelligence is resounding and his appreciation for it is very apparent

Great information! Keep up the good work!

So, this is actually a 9-minute ad for Sonarworks and a 25-second tip on how to set up the Listen Bus. Maybe change the title?

Oh guys, don't make me cry! Great solution!

Why did you apply the plugin in the post section, and not as a direct inset? Thank you. Your videos are the best!

Excellent video, Gregor.

Hi there, great video! I have one question about it: is there a way to use sonarworks studio and headphone version at the same time (one in each bus with different outputs), without the risk of mixdown with corrections? Thanks!!!!

Some kind of Listen Bus feature on the Project mastering page to utilize Sonarworks Reference in the same way would be awesome.

Hi.. I have a basic question - How should one measure Loudness (LUFS), True Peak etc. during mastering when it is used in the project page - with or without Sonarworks EQ correction activated?

Surprised that Presonus is pushing Sonarworks when there are other comparable products out there. I use IK Multimedia's Arc 3 and its superb. 😎

How do I do a listen bus on the Project Page for mastering? Also, what about have multiple listen buses, or something like the splitter plugin that could serve as speaker management like a Dangerous D-Box or Mackie Big Knob, but with room correction for each speaker set?

Thanks Gregor, just upgraded to StudioOne5 coming from Reaper. Where to insert the Sonarworks plugin during mastering in the project page? When i put it on post, de LUFS level is not correct anymore.

sounds like a good concept . But what to do if you have several pairs of speakers ? Switching speakers works in Cubase 11

1st I did not believed in absorption panels. Then room correction. Now I believe in both.

Hi Gregor- Thank you for the fantastic content! A quick question- I noticed that you placed the Reference ID plugin on the 'post' section of the inserts in the Listen bus. Does it matter if it's pre or post? Also, should my master bus plugins (limiters, etc) now be placed on the Listen bus after the room correction plugin? Thanks again.

Thank you so very much!

Is it possible to use it to tuning a Church speakers? Then copy that correction eq to a graphic eq. Thanks

Can you use Goodhertz' Can Opener Studio in conjunction with it in the listening bus?

I just love Sonarworks, best money I've spent in a long time. So just to confirm, the Sonarworks plugin should go into Post insert on the Listen Bus? SO5 still asks me to bypass when I am exporting a mixdown. 😬

Dear gregor I really hope you still reading this I just bought two sceptre s6's. I finished the room and was ready to use the sonarworks reference id. But i kind of stuck on the part where it asks me to point the mic at the mid driver. Do you have any tips of where it would be best to place the mic. Because it is kind of impossible to place it at the center of the mid driver. Sonarworks also have no idea what to do.

Why did u insert the plugin under Post section and why nit under pre section. I use to insert it in pre

Great video! May I ask what that song is you're listening to in the end of the video? Super catchy!

Is it possible to use it only with headphones on apollo twin and not use at the same time on monitors? How to reach this?

I tried to put Reference 4 on the listen bus and used discord to screen share and when I play the song and bypass the plugin (which is not on the main bus output) it seems to affect on my friend's side.. Any tip on how can I listen with Sonarworks on my side while the other side is getting the same mix without my calibration correction?

Is there a way to *make* a Listen Bus in Studio One Artist? It's the main thing I wish Artist had. Reaper has it ("Monitor FX").

Capo Gregor!

Hi Gregor can this be done with studio one professional?

Thx!!!!!!!

haha genuine g-man excitement when switching it on.

Whats different about this one than say the IK Multimedia ARC3???

Question.. I have both Sonorworks (for my room with my Genelecs), and Slate VSX (for headphone reference). I want to have the Sonorworks plugin on my main (for my genelecs) and the Slate VSX on the listening bus going to my headphones. It works, but I also get the Sonorwork processing on the Main through my Listening bus. Is it possible to have these 2 outputs independent? meaning, I don't want to hear the sonorwork plugins on my listening bus.

Hi Gregory I put the sonar in the listen bus. But if I use ssl compresor and slate virtual tape on the main it affects the listen bus????

Thanks Gregor, I used to use this but it somehow slipped away from my system - I've upgraded to 4. Question: There's no listen bus on the mastering (aka project) page. I can't see a way of automatically excluding it from burn/image/DDP etc. Do I have to rely on my leaky memory?

I've watched many videos, still don't understand the routing. So the master flows through the listen bus?

Hey Gregor, long time S1 convert and follower. Thanks for another great vid! I cannot seem to figure out how to do what I need, without connecting an external HP amp. Not sure if its possible, and whether its a hardware routing issue, or software routing config issue in S1. Im not clear on how Cue mixes and the Listen Bus work together. In my case with a Quantum 2626. I want my Mix Bus to be clean, routed out nowhere, only for processing mixdowns, bounces, export to MP3, etc. Then on my Listen Bus I have room correction software (ik ARC3), routed to Main Outs on the 2626, going to my studio monitors. The issue is that I want cue mixes to be based on the Mix Bus (no room correction), but I cant seem to have a corrected mix going to my monitors, with a clean mix going to my cue mixes. Thoughts? Thanks and keep up the great work w Joe. Cheers, Bob in NJ,USA

Hey Gregor, I have a question about Sonarworks: how do you match the input and output level in Sonarworks to avoid any type of sound coloration? I found that Sonarworks has always different input and output level and that can badly influence all mixing&mastering decisions? ..and Sonarworks supposed to give us FLAT 1:1 sound without any colorations ...and no I'm not talking about obvious solution like SAFE HEADROOM option enabled Thanks in advance

Yeah - that's all very well - BUT - I've just had to remove Sonarworks from my system 'cos it would not allow me to sort out signal routing with my new Studiolive desk. Presonus support advised this and suggested I talk to Sonarworks to sort it. Which I will but in my case it was not as simple as the video suggests. It always worked fine with Cubase - but that's not enough of a reason to go back to Cubase.

Is it like a control room in Cubase?

why no Tutorial with the PRM1 reference Mic from PRESONUS???

Why do you not show where you enable the listen bus!!!??

Thanks for the video, but how can we apply this with multiple sonarworks calibrated monitor sets. For example I have Adams S3H, Aphions One 15's and avantone. Now I use multiple outputs in the master section with The Adams and Amphions calibrated and the avantones not. The Adams are connected to the main out and the amphions and avantones to different outputs. I have two busses calles Mix Bus and Master Bus. The mix bus I use for mastering and all channels (busses) are send to this bus. This bus outputs to the Master bus with just plugins for measurement, no processing. The masterbus is outputting to the main output (Adams) and have 2 sends to send the same signal to the amphions and avantones. Finally I have the Sonarworks plugins on the outputs of the Adams and Amphions with there own profile. Everything comes out on the rednet network and with mute buttons I can switch between the monitors with their calibration activated and at the same listening level. I don't think the Listen bus can handle this, correct ? Would be great to have more listen busses for these cases, I think more people use some sort of calibration software and use multiple monitors.

Works fine in daw, but pops & cracks in windows10 sytstemwide. Tried all options and update but not working for me

Can we use this with st1 4.5

Can I calibrate my own mic or only sonarworks?

Wow, Gregor, do you actually work with Rammstein? Or did you use just so little of their song not to trigger the copyright algorithm?

Sonar works is a presonus product?

👍🏽

sound like alien AI in your room

Hi Bro!Now this utility only worsens the sound when working with Studio One))Respect !

And another good feature which cannot be accessed by artist users , 🙏 thank you presonus

That intro gave me seizure! thanks :)
