"Sonarworks are a brand which Focusrite has admired for a long time now, as they have incredible algorithms helping musicians achieve their very best results. Their plug-ins are a godsend for those of us that aren’t blessed with acoustically perfect environments and gear worth thousands of pounds, as they really help to level the playing field.

Sonarworks’ Reference 4 Headphone Edition is simple but impactful, aiming to flatten the response of your headphones. Why is that important? Most headphones “colour” the sound you hear, which means they can mask or exaggerate certain frequencies which could negatively impact how you decide to mix your track. Reference 4 HE removes unwanted colouration meaning you can focus on your music instead of worrying about your set-up, and work on the go with your laptop, confident in the accuracy of your mix.

The Headphone Edition operates as a plug-in on your master channel, and as a standalone bit of software. The interface is super clean and easy to use and it comes with hundreds of profiles for headphones so most brands are covered.
As a registered Focusrite hardware customer, you can download your free licence for the Headphone Edition until 2nd May, so head to your Focusrite account as soon as possible. If you haven’t yet registered as one of our customers please go to Focusrite's registration page."
