01 Room Correction
Core optimisation technology
- Adapts each speaker to your room
- Delivers richer, clearer sound
- Corrects for frequency and timing
Connect your PC or Mac to your speakers, stereo system or AVR and bring Dirac Live to the audio setup you already own. Measure your room, create correction filters and improve the sound before it reaches your system. No dedicated hardware required.

Core optimisation technology
Dirac Live Room Correction is a software tool that optimises the performance of your audio device. It automatically identifies and compensates for any problem areas in your room for the best possible audio experience.

Our advanced software analyses how your room and speaker setup affect the interaction between sound waves and your space. By applying comprehensive corrections, it fixes any misalignment to improve clarity, imaging and balance.
Dirac Live adjusts volume levels and timing across frequencies. This ensures sound from all speakers is coherent, improving imaging and spatial detail.
By aligning the phase of your speakers, all drivers and channels work together seamlessly, reducing distortion and smearing.
The system captures data from several positions to create a correction profile that improves the audio experience across the whole listening area.
Use built-in target curves or draw your own to explore personalised tuning of your system’s tonal balance.
Dirac Live can correct either the full 20 Hz–20 kHz range, or when using a Limited Bandwidth license, focus only on the most problematic low-to-mid frequencies (up to 500 Hz).
Room Correction Suite for computer audio always applies full-range correction, but lets you choose between stereo and multichannel 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.
Subwoofer integration add-on
Dirac Live Bass Control optimises the low-frequencies of your home audio system. It runs alongside Dirac Live Room Correction to manage the interaction between your subwoofers and speakers.

Dirac Bass Control specifically analyses the low frequencies across your room and applies dynamic correction to address any issues.
Subwoofers and full-range speakers are treated as a cohesive system to manage low-frequency output and crossovers holistically.
The algorithm adapts its corrections based on the unique size, shape, and reflective surfaces of your room.
Bass Control optimises performance, whether you have one sub or multiple units, improving consistency across seats.
Phase and arrival time are aligned between subs and speakers, so bass blends seamlessly rather than feeling disconnected.
Dirac Bass Control analyses how low frequencies from each channel combine and then adjusts accordingly to avoid unwanted peaks and dips.
Bass Control is managed through the Dirac Live interface for easy setup and monitoring.
Speaker cooperation add-on
Active Room Treatment (ART) is our most advanced audio correction technology. It unites all the speakers in your system to manage the acoustic challenges of your room — without relying on physical tools like panels or diffusers.

ART goes one step further than simply correcting audio. It uses the strengths of each speaker to create an ideal sound field, where negative effects like resonances are blocked before they even occur.
ART combines your existing speakers into an optimised system, where each speaker actively contributes to the ideal sound field for your space.
Corrections respond to the distinct size and shape of your room, actively using each speaker to compensate for audible defects.
ART provides many of the same benefits as panels and diffusers, without changing how your room looks.
The algorithm treats your speaker array as a collaborative system, sharing playback and optimisation data in real time.
ART ensures sound doesn’t linger for as long in your room, improving clarity and preventing muddiness.
ART builds on Dirac Live’s Room Correction functionality, taking it to the next level.
