I have a pair of Avantone Planar II open backed headphones. THe profile for these doesn't exist in the list. Is there a way to caliberate these headphones? Of can this be added to a future update? 

 

Thanks

Hi dov,

Thank you for reaching out!

We haven't had a chance to calibrate this model for the average profile yet, but, perhaps, we will get to it at some point in the future (although, we cannot make any promises for when exactly as the headphone is quite uncommon). The fully supported model list can always be viewed here.

I have taken note of your model request - generally, we prioritize a new model when enough requests are gathered. If there are any other headphone models you would like to see supported in the future, please feel free to submit a request here.

Meanwhile, if you still wish to pursue calibration on your model, this is possible with the individual headphone calibration service; more details here.

Let us know if you have additional questions!

Hi,

I don't found Austrian.Audio Composer headphone in profiles too.
Don't you get this headphone till today for measuring?

In Internet there gives some presets shown as text files, are they importable? Which format should needed?

A good friend of mine has a GRAS measuring system at his disposal, he could also measure my headphones. Hence my question about the import option.

Friedrich Stockhammer I'm afraid no, third-party measurements are not supported in SoundID Reference. We use our own proprietary headphone measurement technology which usually gives significantly different readings than the ones provided by manufacturers or other measurements (even if the measurements are done with high-end tools, such as GRAS). 

Only the measurements done by our own audio engineers in our own lab (with our own methods) can be used, as this is the only way we can guarantee any mix translation accuracy when working with headphone calibration in SoundID Reference. Since we cannot confirm any such accuracy with third-party measurements, such functionality is not supported. 

Friedrich Stockhammer Ruben Dobles new profile additions are prioritized based on user requests though, so your votes do matter. Submit your model requests here: Submit a headphone request

I'd like to second the request to add the Avantone Planar Pros to your profiles, as I use a pair to mix and master.
