Dirac Live 3.7.3
2023-11-21
Features
- None
Fixes
- Fixed a bug where the Bass Management filter design option did not appear when it should on a Bass Control capable device.
Known problems
Significantly louder Dirac filter (louder Dirac ON than Dirac OFF) than with Dirac Live 3.4.4 on some NAD devices.- The subwoofer outputs don’t get sound with Dirac On on some NAD devices
- We therefore recommend NAD users to stay with Dirac Live 3.4.4 until we have fixed that problem.
- To downgrade from 3.5.1 (or higher) to 3.4.4 (or lower), users need to manually uninstall the higher version before installing the lower version.
- Windows: Go to Windows Settings → Apps → Installed apps → Dirac Live → … → Uninstall
- macOS: Running /Applications/Dirac/maintenancetool will uninstall the Dirac Live application
- Filter export takes about 1 minute longer than with Dirac Live 3.4.4 on Onkyo/Pioneer/Integra devices, but it completes eventually, so please have some extra patience.

Dirac Live 3.7.2
2023-11-01
Features
- Error messages and error codes are now more user-friendly and support-friendly.
- Server sessions have been improved to avoid calculation timeout and Dirac Live project deadlock.
- It is no longer possible (and should not be) to set BM/BC crossover frequencies beyond the allowed range in the Filter Design view.
- The end-user license agreement (EULA) has been updated.
Fixes
- Fixed a bug where Dirac Live crashed when getting invalid filter slot data from the connected device.
- The Dirac Live RC filter export only enabled one subwoofer output on some BC-capable devices. It now enables all configured subs.
- Fixed a bug where the error message on connection failure was missing the device name.
- The “Dirac Live 3” splash screen seen from the Dirac account login view is now shown without the discontinued “3”.
- Fixed a bug where missing filter slot info from the connected device was causing Dirac Live to crash.
- Fixed a bug where the ART option was invisible in the Filter Design view when it should just be grayed out (when loading a project with imprecise sweet spot measurement).
- Fixed a bug where the Dirac Live GUI was not showing when used on PCs with some specific graphic drivers.
- Fixed a bug where there was an inconsistency between the Measurements UI saying the measurement is imprecise and the Filter Design still attempting to correct the impulse response with the imprecise data.
- Fixed an issue where the frequency curtain’s and the Fsiso line’s labels could sometimes overlap in the ART Filter Design UI.

Features
- Active Room Treatment is now officially included for availability with supported devices.
- Splash screen changed from “Dirac Live 3” to just “Dirac Live”, thereby toning down importance of app version number when actually the connected device’s capabilities are more relevant to the available feature set.
- Dirac Live Bass Control features have changed labels in the Technology Selection panel:
- “BC: Upmix only” → “Bass management”
- “BC: Full optimisation” → “Bass Control”
- Technology labels have been added in the left side panel filter slots:
- RC = Dirac Live (Room Correction)
- BM = Dirac Live with standard bass management crossovers
- BC = Bass Control
- ART = Active Room Treatment
- More measurements than the required number for a seating configuration can now be added – either by just clicking “Measure” when the original mic positions have been filled, or, by clicking the “+” icon to create additional generic mic positions.
- Measurements identified as imprecise will be highlighted. Therefore, a user can choose to re-take the measurement. With imprecise measurements present the output will be limited to only use minimum-phase filters.
- The EULA is now also available in the About menu.
Fixes
- In some cases, loading a project caused an error message with incorrect description.
- The Dirac Live application crashed when switching between snapshots with different channel groupings.
- Connecting certain microphones could sometimes cause the app to crash.
- The microphone gain limits could sometimes show the wrong values after switching the selected microphone.
- Loudspeaker icons in Volume Calibration view showed the wrong symbol for “unknown” speaker types.
- Autosave projects did not work with some devices (reported on some Arcam and miniDSP devices).
