Audient Launches ORIA Mini

Audient in collaboration with audio technology innovator, Sonarworks has announced ORIA Mini, which they describe as a compact yet powerful room correction system designed to give music creators, producers and studio owners the confidence to trust every mix. Here's the details direct from the company...

ORIA Mini delivers professional-grade acoustic calibration in a dedicated hardware device -- no software needed, no CPU strain, no latency and no second-guessing.
 
"Every engineer knows the frustration of chasing mixes that don't translate outside the studio," says Andrew Allen, Product & Marketing Director at Audient. "The truth is, your room is usually the problem and if you can't trust what you're hearing, you can't trust your mix. ORIA Mini fixes that in minutes, giving you a professional monitoring environment you can actually trust and the confidence to unlock your best mixes yet."
 
Powered by Sonarworks SoundID Reference, ORIA Mini is an inline hardware DSP solution that integrates between your existing audio interface and speakers. It measures and corrects the acoustic imperfections of any space -- from home studios to professional control rooms -- and applies corrective calibration directly via its onboard DSP. This ensures accurate, reliable monitoring without relying on plugins or systemwide software.
 
Martins Polelis, CPO at Sonarworks says, "At Sonarworks, our mission has always been to help creators hear every detail with confidence, no matter where they work. With ORIA Mini powered by SoundID Reference, that promise extends into a dedicated hardware solution -- giving creators studio-accurate sound without CPU strain, latency, or workflow disruption. By correcting room imperfections and ensuring mixes translate across every playback system, ORIA Mini embodies the core of what Sonarworks delivers: consistency, reliability, and freedom for creators to focus purely on their music."
 
With 32-bit converters, 127dB dynamic range and support for up to 2.1 speaker systems, ORIA Mini delivers uncompromising audio performance in a sleek, portable form. Users can load up to four unique calibration profiles onto the hardware and switch between them instantly for a speedy workflow. With Sonarworks, users can even create calibration profiles that simulate different playback environments like a car or mobile phone to check how their mixes will translate to other systems -- all without leaving the desk.
 
Andrew continues: "We understand whilst room correction has such a positive impact on your ability to achieve great mixes it is also complicated!  It is for that reason that ORIA Mini is designed to be a set and forget box - offering consistent, reliable performance with ultra-low latency, doing its job quietly in the background with zero fuss. No crashes, no CPU strain -- just high resolution, consistently accurate monitoring whether you're mixing in your DAW or simply streaming music via Spotify."
