"The interface has been completely redesigned for improved usability and the resolution is four times greater for enhanced response in the bass end with a more natural sound in the midrange and high frequencies. PLUS: Superb Interface, easy and quick setup, very usable omnidirectional microphone, portability."
MusicTech magazine have given ARC 2 a thorough check-out in their October 2012 issue. Reviewer Huw Price is very impressed and says "ARC 2 delivers exactly what it promises - and more" !
Here are some of his comments:
"The interface has been completely redesigned for improved usability and the resolution is four times greater for enhanced response in the bass end with a more natural sound in the midrange and high frequencies."
"'Virtual Monitoring' is an interesting feature that mimics the sound of various popular studio monitors, in-car audio systems, boom boxes, iPod docks and more. You can therefore accurately gauge how your mix will translate without having to burn a CD and take it out to the car."
"Learning the response of a room and monitors is a basic engineering skill and standard process... if you are working against the clock in an unfamiliar room without your usual set of speakers then ARC 2 could be exactly what you need and the virtual monitoring feature is very useful."
Final verdict
+ Superb Interface
+ Easy and quick setup
+ Very usable omnidirectional microphone
+ Portability
