A-50 Measuring with Dirac Live

Dirac Live® is an advanced room correction technology developed by Dirac Research. As one of the most advanced room correction technology available on the market, Dirac Live helps listeners to correct for one of the weakest components in the audio chain: the listening room. Dirac Live not only corrects the frequency response, but also the impulse response of the loudspeakers in a room, yielding improved imaging and timbre, better clarity, tighter bass, and less early reflections, as well as reduced resonances and room modes.

Dirac Live Bass Control 

Dirac Live Bass Control is a technology to manage low-frequency channel routing from the signal to the playback channels (speakers) of your audio device. Additionally, with full control over the device's channel and frequency routing and output, the Dirac Live room correction technology is significantly augmented. In particular systems with multiple subwoofers will see a substantially improved room correction and bass performance. To use Dirac Live Bass Control, you need to register with Dirac Live and obtain a Dirac Live Bass Control license. For more information, see the Dirac Live website. 

1. Start the Onkyo Controller and tap the unit when displayed. 

*The application for PCs allows for more detailed settings. (Dirac Live for Onkyo)

2. Connect the supplied speaker setup microphone to the SETUP MIC jack on the main unit.

3. Follow the guidance of the app to start measurement.

Using Dirac Live                                                                           

 You can apply the filter curves adjusted based on the measurement results of Dirac Live. From the Onkyo Controller menu screen, select from "Slot1" to "Slot3". Select “Off” if you do not use Dirac Live.
