SAN FRANCISCO –  October 12, 2021 – We have recently released SoundID Reference (the next-generation version of Reference 4) version 5.1.0. Full release notes are available here.

The latest update enables users of SoundID Reference to export presets to MERGING+ANUBIS as part of the newly announced Sonarworks partnership with Merging Technologies. This unique partnership will allow creators to access the SoundID Reference correction software directly in Anubis without the use of a computer.  

In addition to the collaboration with Merging Technologies, the SoundID Reference 5.1.0 update has fixed over 35 bugs and improved audio driver logic and stability. It has also added the X-Curve and B&K 1974 predefined target curves, two of the most requested target curves by users.
