Just want to say.
You might think this product is a waste. Why pay for this. Aren’t my Monitors Fine? etc.
The answer is NO. You need this product. This product is perhaps one of the best purchases I have made for my mixing. So very much so.
I can’t thank the folks at IK enough for this system.
However, it would be nice if the software would tell you that you need to use the Arc X software now… But, all in all, this was the best purchase I have made in a long time.
Huge difference in the outcomes of your mixes.
what have you found that Arc X gives you that Arc 4 does not?
After you updated the firmware on the hardware device, it no longer works with Arc 4 software. Everytime you launch the Arc 4 software it says it is incompatible.
Also, when looking in IK Product manager, there is no option to update Arc 4 software. So, it would seem that Arc 4 software is replaced with Arc X.
Yes, ARC X replaces ARC 4 for free.
Just chiming in to 100% agree. it breathed new life into my old monitors and definitely helped me level up my mixing game. It’s awesome.
