ARC X Immersive

INSTANTLY CALIBRATE ANY IMMERSIVE STUDIO

ARC® X Immersive is the latest expansion of ARC X, extending its calibration engine from stereo and stereo-plus-sub systems to full immersive monitoring setups up to 9.1.6. It eliminates guesswork and transforms your room into a precise, reliable reference environment.

ARC X Immersive works with ARC-enabled iLoud monitors and ARC Studio for third-party systems, delivering accurate, hardware-based calibration across your entire setup.

Core Benefits

Fully automated multichannel alignment
Measure and calibrate your entire speaker system as a single system, with level and timing alignment across every channel plus automatic subwoofer integration and management.
Accurate spatial imaging and translation
Achieve defined phantom center, consistent tonal balance, and mixes that translate reliably across playback systems.
Complete system calibration
Go beyond basic EQ with full-range room correction and precise subwoofer integration.

Fast, guided workflow
Turn a complex, error-prone process into a simple, repeatable setup that takes minutes instead of hours or days.
Embedded hardware calibration
Calibration is stored and processed directly inside ARC-enabled iLoud monitors or ARC Studio, so your correction is always active. No DAW or plug-ins required.

ARC X Immersive - MacBook and Measurement Mic

Immersive is powerful. Calibration is the challenge.

Building an immersive studio isn’t just about adding more speakers; it’s about making them work together.

In real-world studios, systems are often uncalibrated or only roughly aligned by ear. Others rely on SPL meters, basic EQ, or manual tuning across multiple tools, often with inconsistent results.

Even professional setups frequently lack full system alignment, resulting in unstable imaging, poor low-frequency control, and mixes that don’t translate reliably.

The solution: full-system immersive calibration

ARC X Immersive transforms complex calibration into a guided, repeatable workflow.

It treats your entire speaker array as a single system, then automatically aligns levels, timing, phase, and room response across all channels.

What once required hours, or even days of manual adjustment, now takes minutes and delivers greater precision and consistency.

Not just easier, fundamentally better

Traditional immersive calibration relies on approximations, SPL meters, manual EQ, and trial-and-error workflows.

Some automated systems improve on this, but often apply only basic parametric EQ without full system alignment.

ARC X Immersive goes further.

It delivers full-range correction across every channel, precise phase alignment, and accurate subwoofer integration, all working together to perfectly calibrate the entire system.

The result is not just faster setup, but clearly better sound and more reliable translation.

How it works

Measure

Capture your room and full speaker array using a guided process. ARC X Immersive analyzes the acoustic behavior of every channel as a unified system.

Align

Automatically calibrate level, timing, phase, and room response across all speakers to create a cohesive monitoring environment.

Mix

Work in a system you can trust, with accurate spatial imaging, balanced response, and reliable translation.

Full-system control and alignment

ARC X Immersive doesn’t just correct individual speakers. It manages the entire monitoring system.

Every channel is precisely level-matched and time-aligned, while advanced processing corrects both frequency and phase response.

Low-frequency performance is fully integrated, with subwoofer level and phase aligned for tight, controlled, and consistent bass.

ARC X Immersive automatically measures and manages:

Level matching
Time alignment
Room response
Subwoofer integration

The result is a unified system that delivers accurate imaging and dependable translation across all playback environments.

Built for real-world studios

ARC X Immersive is designed for real environments where perfect placement isn’t always possible.

It works seamlessly with ARC-enabled iLoud monitors and supports third-party systems via ARC Studio hardware, which stores and applies calibration directly.

This ensures your system remains calibrated at all times, independent of your DAW or workflow.

Built on ARC technology refined since 2007, it delivers consistent, repeatable results across any setup.

How to Unlock the ARC X Immersive Expansion

ARC X Immersive makes professional immersive calibration more accessible than ever.

It’s included with compatible iLoud monitoring systems and is available for third-party setups via ARC Studio as a standalone solution.

This flexible approach allows more engineers to build calibrated immersive systems without the cost and complexity of traditional solutions.

To unlock immersive features in ARC X, you’ll need a qualifying multichannel system.

For example, 4+ iLoud Micro Monitor Pro speakers or 2+ ARC Studio units. See the table below for details.

Devices must be registered in IK Product Manager to qualify.
