MIXCHECKER AUDIFIED FREE
You can find a few free IRs for different speakers online, but you don’t have the range on offer here and you’ll have to load them individually into a convolution plug-in. There’s not really much like MixChecker out there. The balancing between models is well done, but doesn’t offer the ability to adjust to personal tastes. Rather than offer multiple models to cover specific devices, Audified made over 300 measurements in an echo-free chamber with different mic positions to distill the overall characteristics of each setup.Įssentially, though, MixChecker is based on a convolution engine, with some very carefully thought-out impulse responses, and with each model volume-balanced to help with comparisons.
The simulated models include Classic Studio Monitor, Classic Cube Monitor, On Ear Headphones, Smart Phone, Tablet, Laptop, Car Audio, Television, Micro HiFi, Radio, Desktop Speakers and Earbuds. There are no complex hidden features: just 12 buttons, a bypass switch and an optional Compensation section that tweaks the output for average five- or eight-inch speakers or headphones. Available in 32 and 64-bit VST, AU and AAX formats, the plug-in loads as the last item in your chain with a crisp, satisfying GUI that looks like a physical monitoring box. In steps Audified with its latest plug-in, MixChecker, which allows you to quickly flick between 12 different acoustic models, all from the comfort of your studio chair. It’s a slow process to get those final EQ tweaks right, so everything translates perfectly across different sizes and types of speaker.
Or you carry the CD around with you, taking every opportunity to test for imperfections on different systems. Anyone that’s into mixing down music has no doubt been though the experience of checking a mix in your mixing room, followed by burning a CD version and rushing out to the car to see how it stacks up.
