ARC System 2
1.3 How does the ARC System 2 work?
1) The first step is to measure your room.
To measure your room, just connect the ARC 2 Measurement Microphone to
any phantom powered MIC input in your audio interface, and launch the ARC
2 Measurement software (figure 1.4) from your Mac or PC computer. Then,
ARC 2 Measurement will guide you through 5 easy steps to properly set up
the microphone and measure your room. Thanks to the Audyssey MultEQ
®
XT32 room correction technology, the ARC System 2 not only allows you to
measure and correct the sweet spot (usually where the mixing engineer is
seated), but also to measure multiple positions in the room to ensure the
most accurate representation of its acoustical problems in the overall space.

In fact, instead of applying a standard EQ as all other systems do (that will
be helpful only in the sweet spot and make all other room areas sound worse
than before), the ARC System 2 will analyze all your studio zones such as
your center sweet spot, producer desk or client couch. Then it will provide
a correction curve that effectively works for all of the zones at the same
time. Once the measurement sets have been taken, the ARC 2 Measurement
software will save its results as a file that describes the room acoustics and
its relative correction. If you have various speaker configurations, just repeat
the process by taking multiple measurement sets and saving them in differ-
ent files. The overall measurement process will take only a few minutes, but
the ARC System 2 will give you a timeless solution.
