Is there any difference between UMIK-1 and other similar room calibration microphones?
While there are many microphones that are suitable for use with Dirac Live Room Correction Suite, we can warmly recommend the room calibration microphone UMIK-1 because of its reasonable price and simplicity.
Can I use one license for MAC and the other for PC if I buy the Full Version?
Yes!
Can I transfer the software to a new computer for instance if I want to replace my old computer with a new one?
Yes! But note that If you try to install the software on more computers than you have licenses for then you will get a message like this:
You have reached the installation limitation.
This is normally a hardware ID issue but there is a way to solve it:
Uninstall the software. The uninstallation process removes the record of the computer from our server, so you can install it on another computer. However, sometimes this won’t work if your computer was not connected to the internet during the uninstallation or if you have an older version of Dirac Live that doesn’t include that function. If your computer crashes and you did not get the chance to do the uninstallation then you can contact our technical support here.But please, do an uninstallation before contacting us.
How do I know if there is an update available?
Updates will be communicated to customers by a message at software start up.
Is it possible to test the Trial Version more than one time?
The trial expires 14 days after running the software for the first time for MAC and PC as well. We can unfortunately not offer a second trial period.

What is the difference between the Stereo Version and the Full Version?
The main difference is that the Stereo Version supports 2 channels while the Full Version supports up to 8 channels. View version comparison at our online store here.
Is it possible for me to sell my license to someone else?
Your license and account are personal and cannot be sold to a third party.
Can I change my mind and regret the purchase?
Dirac offers a 30 day 100 % money back guarantee if you would like to cancel your purchase for some reason.
We propose the miniDSP UMIK-1 microphone as a microphone for use with our digital room correction software. However, there are many other options available as long as they follow these general microphone guidelines. Please note that measurement microphone is not included in the purchase of the Dirac Live Room Correction software.
Using our software requires an omnidirectional full-bandwidth measurement microphone for room acoustics. We recommend that the frequency response stays within ± 1 dB in the area of the speaker's frequency response range.
If that is not possible, we recommend that you use a calibration file. The Dirac Live Calibration Tool™ supports microphone calibration files as long as they represent the frequency response of the microphone. Microphones without a flat frequency response will produce incorrect measurement information, and you will have to take this into consideration when setting your target curve.
Run the tool and point it to the SD card device e.g. /dev/block/mmcblk1 (you almost certainly do not want to use mmcblk0, that is likely to be the built-in storage on your device). List the /dev/block folder and make sure the device you going to use appears and disappears as you insert and remove the SD card to be sure. Supply the new CID you want to set on the command line.
