Everyone seems to like those monitors with room-correction algorithms, but not everyone wants to replace their monitors. IK Multimedia now has a solution for room correction in plug-in form. It called ARC (Advanced Room Correction), and it comes with a microphone for recording tones that determine the room correction that’s needed. You apply the plug-in to your DAW’s master channel when mixing, and disable it before rendering the audio, to keep the room correction off the audio file. IK expects to ship ARC in Q4 for $699 or $499 for registerd users of other IK products.

In other IK news, the SampleMoog ($299) virtual instrument that’s based on samples of 16 vintage Moog synthesizers is now shipping, and the Stomp IO hardware foot controller/USB audio interface for using with Amplitube will be available in November. IK is taking pre-orders for ARC and Stomp IO on its website.
