Reference Measure
Reference Measure is part of Sonarworks' Reference 4 ecosystem, a calibration and measurement tool for audio professionals. It works alongside Reference 4 room correction software to capture acoustic data and provide room-measurement capabilities. Audio engineers, recording studios, and acousticians use it to analyse their monitoring environments, identify frequency response problems, and ensure their listening spaces are properly calibrated before applying Sonarworks' correction software. It is typically used in professional music production, mastering, and acoustics work where accurate measurement of the listening environment is critical.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find detailed public information about Reference Measure specifically or Sonarworks' native Apple Silicon support status. To determine your best path forward, contact Sonarworks directly and ask whether a native Apple Silicon build of Reference 4 (including the Measure component) is available or planned. This is important because an Intel-only build will stop launching entirely when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28, expected in September 2028 — giving you approximately 27 months to plan. In the meantime, your current build continues to run under Rosetta, but confirming the vendor's roadmap now will help you avoid surprise disruption closer to the deadline. If Sonarworks has already shipped a native build, you may simply need to reinstall or update to the latest version through their website or update utility.
