What’s the difference between app presets and plugin presets?

Utilize the preset system in the SoundID Reference standalone app and DAW plugin to set up your calibration profiles and easily switch between the presets. 

 

In this article:

You can create presets in both the SoundID Reference standalone app and the DAW plugin. Create and use the presets to easily switch between complex configurations when you are using multiple output devices.

Presets in the SoundID Reference standalone app

You can assign multiple presets to a single output device if you have more than one headphone or speaker pair connected to your audio interface. This makes it easy to switch between your available outputs and create configurations for your systemwide audio. Any changes you make to the DSP settings of your presets (such as Filter Mode, Limit Controls, etc.) will be saved and remembered for the next time you connect your output device and engage the presets.

  • Select your headphone or measured speaker calibration profiles to create multiple output presets
  • Individual DPS settings of your choice are saved in each preset
  • Switch between Flat target, Custom target, and Translation check modes
  • Rename the presets to your liking
  • Take advantage of MIDI mapping the presets
