TC Electronic has announced a comprehensive software update for its Clarity M desktop hardware audio meter.
The version 2.0 update will help audio professionals working in music production to improve their mixes.
“The initial version of Clarity M was heavily influenced by the workflow and requirements of the broadcast industry,” explains Thomas Valter, Director of Product Management at the Danish audio company. “But as we’ve seen a lot of producers, mixing engineers, musicians and live DJs adopt the meter, we have for a long time wanted to give it a major overhaul with more focus on music production.”
The new features of Clarity M all aim at making life easier for the audio engineers, and ensure that their final deliveries sound their best, no matter the playback system.
On top of an added offline metering mode and support for 96 kHz digital stereo input, the updated version features new dedicated stereo tools, such as a customizable vector scope and a combined Left-Right and Mid-Side balance meter.
Already adopted by many producers, mixing engineers, musicians and live DJs around the world, TC Electronic expects that the updated version will see Clarity M find its way to even more consoles, mixing desks and bedroom recording stations.
