IK Multimedia ARC Studio Digital Room Correction Processor With Mic - Each (1143447)

The IK Multimedia ARC Studio room correction system combines a standalone correction processor, ARC X measurement software, and an ARC analysis microphone to improve studio monitor accuracy in any room. It analyzes your space and applies precise correction in minutes, so you can trust what you hear and mix with more confidence.

Accurate Monitoring in Any Room

Your room impacts how you hear your music because size, shape, materials, and furniture can distort frequency response and stereo balance. ARC X analyzes these issues and corrects them, which helps deliver more controlled low end, tighter transients, and more precise stereo imaging.

• Standalone digital acoustic room correction
• Works with any monitor system in any room
• Full-range correction for any type of audio production
• Natural or linear phase correction options

Fast Setup with a Simple Measure-Transfer-Connect Workflow

ARC Studio installs in minutes. You connect the microphone to your interface and follow the guided acoustic measurement points from your listening position, then transfer the calibration file to ARC Studio and place the processor between your interface and monitors to apply correction to all incoming signals.

• Generates correction profiles in minutes
• Stores the correction profile and applies it to all incoming audio
• Supports multiple profiles for different setups, listening positions, or monitor pairs

High-End Conversion and Transparent Signal Path

ARC Studio delivers 120 dB(A) analog input-to-analog output dynamic range, 0.5 Hz to 40 kHz frequency response, and ultra-stable clocking for low jitter that fades away. It uses AKM Velvet Sound™ converters for AD and DA conversion, and it connects through balanced XLR connectors with a relay-based hard bypass for power-safety protection against sudden power bursts when bypassed.

• Premium AD/DA conversion with AKM Velvet Sound™ converters
• Balanced XLR input and output connections
• Relay-based hard bypass for power-safety protection

Monitor Emulation and Reference Checking with ARC X

ARC X adds deep control over each profile and includes a monitor emulation function. It can simulate more than 20 speaker system profiles, ranging from high-end studio monitors to consumer playback devices, so you can check mixes across different reference systems without changing monitors.

• More than 20 speaker system profiles included in ARC X
• Advanced speaker emulation for fast reference checks
• Deep profile controls with up to 9 target curves

Built for Real-Time Monitoring and Growing Studios

ARC Studio supports zero-latency monitoring for real-time use in any configuration, including hardware- and console-based setups. It also supports updatable firmware, which helps keep the system ready as your studio workflow evolves.

• No-latency monitoring for real-time workflows
• Works in computer-based or console-based studios
• Firmware updatable for long-term use
