I actually posted this elsewhere today but wanted to post separately for all to see because I am so enthused by this product.
So I installed arc today. Let me give you a bit of background. I have the smallest studio in the world. I have been relegated next to the washer and dryer in the basement. My head bumps against the ceiling and I am trying to make the best of a pretty bad situation. On a personal and positive note, I will be separating from the person (wife) who relegated me to said laundry room soon. So I am expecting an improvement in recording conditions. At least my recording hobby resulted in some good! My recording space is "apparently" treated. I got advice and consultation from auralex and did what they said. The result was non-impactful to be diplomatic.
As I said I installed Arc today. I am stunned. Now I actually know what stereo imaging means. I can actually hear the difference. I had a severe bass issue that seems to have disappeared. However I am not used to this new sound and will have to get used to it.
The real test will be my next mix which is imminent. Stay tuned!
I have to say- if this works this will be a game changer for home recording. On Gearslutz everytime Arc is mentioned Ethan Whiner starts attacking. Feels like a paradigm shift that many industries have known. The old order is going into defensive mode before crumbling. |
