Use the channel identification tracks to ensure your stereo image is correct.
Are you experiencing a , such as muddiness, harsh highs, or a lack of bass?
Perfect for detecting harshness in the upper-midrange frequencies (around 2kHz to 4kHz).
: To push the dynamic and frequency limits of a system, the disc contains high-impact effects like a sub-machine gun Chieftain tank 1000mph jet flypast Music Demonstrations
Using low-bitrate versions of this test CD renders the high-frequency and phase tests inaccurate.
If you can find the original 2003 CD or its digital archive, it is a necessary investment for anyone serious about audio reproduction.
Includes 1/3 octave pink noise bands used to plot a venue's room response.
This section is a godsend for fault-finding and precision alignment of analog gear like tape machines. It contains sine and square wave tones at spot frequencies like 50Hz, 1kHz, and 10kHz. Square waves, in particular, are extremely useful for assessing the phase and time alignment of a speaker system.
Isolated grand piano tracks to check for harmonic distortion and cabinet resonance.
is widely considered one of the most authoritative, precise, and comprehensive audio calibration tools ever created for sound engineers, audiophiles, and live production professionals. Originally released in 1993 and later updated, the 2003 Sound Check 2 Audio Test and Demonstration CD Go to product viewer dialog for this item.
: Play the uncompressed drum tracks to verify that your amplifiers have enough headroom to handle sudden audio spikes without clipping.
: Play the orchestral and rock demonstration tracks. High-quality systems will resolve the quiet details without distorting during loud passages.
Mastered by the renowned , this disc is a reference-quality recording that contains a total of 99 tracks of meticulously prepared material. Its contents were compiled as a result of careful research and investigation into the needs of studio engineers, audio technicians, serious audiophiles, record producers, and musicians.
Before running any test, set all graphic or parametric equalizers on your playback device to zero (neutral).
