Dirac Live
Dirac Live
®
is an advanced room correction technology developed by Dirac
Research. As one of the most advanced room correction technology available
on the market, Dirac Live helps listeners to correct for one of the weakest
components in the audio chain: the listening room. Dirac Live not only corrects
the frequency response, but also the impulse response of the loudspeakers in a
room, yielding improved imaging and timbre, better clarity, tighter bass, and less
early reections, as well as reduced resonances and room modes.
Dirac Live Bass Control
Dirac Live Bass Control is a technology to manage low-frequency channel
routing from the signal to the playback channels (speakers) of your audio
device. Additionally, with full control over the device’s channel and frequency
routing and output, the Dirac Live room correction technology is signicantly
augmented. In particular systems with multiple subwoofers will see a
substantially improved room correction and bass performance.
To use Dirac Live Bass Control, you need to register with Dirac Live and obtain
a Dirac Live Bass Control license. For details, refer to the Dirac Live website.

Measuring with Dirac Live
Use the Integra Control Pro to use Dirac Live to take measurements. Use the
most recent version. Note that you cannot make settings using operations on
this unit.
Refer to "Integra Control Pro" ( →p173) for information about the app. Also
have a tripod ready to set up the speaker setup microphone.
• Calibration takes about 20 minutes to be completed.
1. Start the Integra Control Pro and tap the unit when displayed.
2. Connect the supplied speaker setup microphone to the Setup Mic jack on the
main unit.

3. Tap "Yes", conrm that the displayed speaker conguration is correct, then
tap "Yes".
• If the number of speaker channels set in "Speaker" - "Conguration"
- "Speaker Channels" ( →p134) in the Setup menu is dierent to the
number of connected speaker channels, an error is displayed and
measurement cannot be performed.
4. Select whether to use Dirac Live Bass Control. Select "Use" to use it and log
into Dirac Live.
5. Select the method of measurement. There are two methods of measuring
to choose from; "Quick Measurement" which measures 3 locations; at the
listening position and to the left and right of the listening position; and "Full
Measurement" which measures 9 positions including the listening position.
Tap the method you prefer.
