Introducing ARC System 3

[Peter - IK Multimedia]

As mentioned previously we have videos that go into detail about ARC 3 including this one that I don't see posted in the thread:

Can only speak for myself, just a single customer, but if you guys can implement your own system-wide feature, at least before the others do their next 40% off sale, then I am so in.

With all respect--I really do love IK and use a number of your products, including ARC 2 and especially MODO and Miroslav--but if a developer can see that a number of people are clamoring for a feature and yet simply does not (will not? cannot?) implement that feature, AND that feature does exist somewhere, then why would I stay in my current ecosystem?

Again, I absolutely love IK, but I don't understand this whole thing with no system-wide for Arc. The proposed solution may work, but I'm looking for an all-in-one solution.

If you mean others by Sonarworks, i dont remember if they ever did 40% off but they are doing now Spring sale with 20%. So your choice

[Peter - IK Multimedia]

For the initial release of ARC 3, we concentrated on the algorithm / quality of sound and we're confident that those results are better than what you'll get from others. If you'd like to use ARC 3 system wide we have information in the ARC 3 FAQ section and requests for it to be built in have been submitted to the team.

We do have a new tutorial posted about using ARC 3 in your DAW here:

So what about adding mic calibration file loading from ARC 3 to TR5 Mic Room's source mics?
And maybe the original ARC mics, too? The MEMS mic and every iRig mic is in there.

Good one. I sent this to the product managers of both ARC 3 and T-RackS. Thank you.

Peter can you pass a feature request to bring back Mono, Mid, side slection? those are very hand, well were handy when they were in arc 2.5

After using extensivly i must say Arc 3 is very big improvement over 2.5 in sound departament. Main reason for that = no phasing, which is a nice surprise

[Peter - IK Multimedia]

Yes, I can pass requests and thank you for your kind words.

Note that we are now shipping the full bundle (ARC 3 software + microphone).

So i tryed the demo. I was sceptical about this release, but i must say the new algo in terms of sound is really impressive. I am using custom passive nearfield studio monitors with amplifier with built-in dsp correction for fixing speakers curvature. After buying them i was unable to use ARC 2.5 because it just did the sound worse. I don't know why, but it worked only for ordinary active studio speakers and not for mine custom dsp corrected. Now i will update from 2.5 in the close future. Thank you IK, but please, implement system wide option. This is the last thing needed.

Hey Peter, just saw there is an update

Fixed incorrect latency reporting in the plugin instances
Fixed behavior of New Analysis not resetting measurement points
Fixed the RTA displaying inverse value below 20 Hz in 96 kHz sessions
Minor bug fixes

What does Behaviour of new analysis not resetting measument points mean?

Can you pass these requests:

- A volume knob for the measurment program
- Quick Setup mode for setting up speakers (1 measurement shows a graph )
- system wide mode

Absolutely.

Also for all:

Note that both ARC 3 and T-RackS 5 have been updated to support ARC 3 integration:

T-RackS 5.3.3

• Added ARC 3 integration (requires ARC 3.0.2 or later)
• General Reliability Improvements

ARC System 3.02

• Added T-RackS 5 integration (requires T-RackS 5.3.3 or later)
• General reliability improvements

Hi, Peter!

Any news about system wide mode?

It has been almost 14 months since the last discussion here and on your tech support forum

Has anyone been able to use this successfully with any other calibration mic? I read somewhere that ARC completely ignores the data if you load in a calibration file for another mic such as the emm-6 or umik-1. Rendering it pretty inaccurate unless you use the Mems mic.
