1. تعارف

The IK Multimedia ARC Studio is an advanced room correction system designed to optimize the acoustic performance of your studio or listening environment. This system includes a high-precision measurement microphone, sophisticated ARC 4 software, and a dedicated hardware processor. By analyzing your room's acoustic response, ARC Studio creates a custom correction profile to ensure accurate and balanced audio reproduction, leading to more reliable mixing and mastering decisions.

2. حفاظت جي ڄاڻ

Please read and follow all safety instructions to prevent damage to the device or personal injury.

• ڊوائيس کي پاڻي يا گهڻي نمي جي سامهون نه رکو.

4. پراڊڪٽ ختمview

The ARC Studio system comprises three main components working in conjunction to achieve precise room correction.

4.1 ARC Studio Hardware Processor

This dedicated hardware unit processes the audio signal, applying the room correction profile in real-time. It features balanced XLR inputs and outputs for seamless integration into your studio setup. The processor operates with 24-bit/96 kHz AD/DA converters for transparent signal integrity.

1. Connect the ARC Studio Processor:
   • Connect the outputs of your audio interface to the L ۽ R XLR inputs on the rear of the ARC Studio processor.
   • ڳنڍيو L ۽ R XLR outputs of the ARC Studio processor to the inputs of your studio monitors.
   • Connect the supplied USB cable from the ARC Studio processor to an available USB port on your computer.
   • بجلي جي فراهمي کي ڳنڍيو ڊي سي اين port on the ARC Studio processor and plug it into a power outlet.
2. Connect the Measurement Microphone (for calibration):
   • Connect the ARC Measurement Microphone to an XLR input on your audio interface. Ensure phantom power (+48V) is enabled for the microphone input on your audio interface.

5.3 Room Calibration Process

The calibration process uses the ARC 4 software and the measurement microphone to analyze your room and create a correction profile.

1. Launch the ARC 4 software on your computer.
2. Select your audio interface as the input device for the measurement microphone and ensure the output is routed through the ARC Studio processor.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions in the ARC 4 software to perform the room measurements. This typically involves placing the microphone at various positions around your listening area.
4. The software will generate a room correction profile based on these measurements.
5. هڪ دفعو پروfile is generated, you can save it and upload it to the ARC Studio hardware processor via the USB connection.

6. Operating the ARC Studio System

6.1 Using the ARC Studio Hardware Processor

Once a correction profile is loaded onto the ARC Studio processor, it operates independently of your computer. The processor applies the correction to all audio passing through it.

• پاور LED: يونٽ جي طاقت جي حيثيت ڏيکاري ٿو.
• سگنل / ڪلپ LED Shows audio signal presence and clipping. Adjust input levels on your audio interface to avoid clipping.
• Correction Button/LED: Toggles the room correction on or off. The LED indicates whether correction is active.

6.2 ARC 4 Software Features

The ARC 4 software provides advanced control and customization options for your room correction profiles.

• Custom EQ Profiles: Tailor the correction to your specific preferences or room characteristics.
• Monitor Emulations: Simulate the sound of various studio monitors and reference systems, allowing you to cross-check your mixes without needing multiple sets of speakers.
• Correction Types: Choose between different correction algorithms (e.g., Natural, Linear) to suit your workflow.
