Key features

Impulse Response Correction
Dirac Live adjusts volume levels and timing across frequencies. This ensures sound from all speakers is coherent, improving imaging and spatial detail.
Phase Alignment
By aligning the phase of your speakers, all drivers and channels work together seamlessly, reducing distortion and smearing.
Multi-Position Measurement
The system captures data from several positions to create a correction profile that improves the audio experience across the whole listening area.
Custom Target Curves
Use built-in target curves or draw your own to explore personalised tuning of your system’s tonal balance.
Full-range or Limited
Depending on your license, Dirac Live can apply correction to the full 20Hz–20kHz range, or just to the most problematic low-mid area.
On-Device Filter Processing
Once calculated, filters are applied directly on compatible devices for
continuous correction with no added steps or latency. For non-compatible
devices, see the desktop audio tool below.

The details

Where it runs

Dirac Live correction filters run directly on compatible audio devices (AVRs,
soundbars, streamers) after calibration.

For non-compatible devices, use our desktop audio tool to apply correction in real-time from your computer.

Check for compatibility

Setup
1. Calibrate using the Dirac app
Using a measurement microphone (such as the miniDSP UMIK-1) and the Dirac
calibration software on your Windows/Mac computer or iOS/Android device,
you'll measure your room from multiple listening positions.
2. Generate correction filters
The calibration software analyzes your measurements and creates custom correction filters tailored to your room and speakers.
3. Apply filters
For compatible devices: Filters are automatically uploaded to your device and run continuously during playback.
For non-compatible devices: Use the desktop audio tool to apply filters in real-time to your desktop audio (standalone or DAW plugin).
Two options for playback
Dirac Live Room Correction can be run:
Directly from a compatible audio device: After calibrating, correction filters are uploaded to your device and run automatically during playback. No computer is needed after setup.
As a desktop audio tool: For non-compatible devices, the desktop audio product applies correction in real-time to your computer audio (standalone app or DAW plugin). Speakers must be connected to your computer during playback.

All users:
Computer or mobile device for calibration tool (Windows 10+, macOS 11+, iOS, or Android)
External calibration microphone
A compatible device, or, if using the desktop audio tool, a computer with Windows 10+ or macOS 11+
