The Korena take

The SoundID Reference Measurement Microphone is an XLR measurement mic built for SoundID Reference calibration work. Its supplied SoundID Reference calibration profile is custom-tailored, and the microphone was measured against an ANSI-certified microphone for precision in that workflow. An omnidirectional, pre-polarized electret-condenser capsule captures measurement sound from all directions. A second calibration profile is supplied for use with third-party systems, giving the mic a separate path beyond SoundID Reference.
