Sonic Studio III
Intuitive Audio-Tuning Suite
Sonic Studio supports HRTF-based (head-related transfer function*) virtual
surround for VR headsets, casting an immersive aural landscape that draws you
deeper into the action. The intuitive Sonic Studio interface also offers a range
of EQ options and one-click presets, allowing you to tailor acoustics to suit
personal preferences or the characteristics of your headset.
APP-SPECIFIC PROFILES
Apply customized audio settings to different applications, so everything you
do is perfectly tuned to the way you want to listen.
SURROUND SOUND
Surround sound for a truly immersive audio experience.
Sonic Studio Link
New Sonic Studio Link VR functionality extends its HRTF effects to headsets
like the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive.
*A head-related transfer function is an audio algorithm derived from sound
data recorded through a dummy head. Test tones are played from a spherical grid
around the dummy head to obtain subtle changes in sounds that come from
different directions. The results are combined into an algorithm that allows
Sonic Studio's virtual surround to process sound true to life.
Gaming
In-game sound effects and music are adjusted automatically to increase the
feeling of immersion, so audio pulls you further into the game.
Movie
The Voice Clarity and Smart Volume sliders are set high to emphasize dialog,
so you'll hear the softest whispers and experience minimum distortion at maximum
volume.
Music
Voice Clarity, Bass Boost and Treble Boost are carefully balanced so your
music-listening experience feels like a live performance.
Communications
Soft sounds are accentuated by Smart Volume for enhanced listening, while
Voice Clarity boosts speech for crystal-clear conversations.
Virtual Reality
Sonic Studio Link applies Sonic Studio III effects to your VR headset,
boosting immersion in virtual worlds.
MultiTasking
Easy-to-use routing assigns different audio streams to different outputs,
such as browser effects to headphones and game audio to speakers.
NETWORKING
Loaded with the latest technologies, you'll benefit from connections as quick
and simple to make as they are stable and speedy.
