Can't speak from personal experience about any of the room simulations but I really don't think that they are worth buying as you still have other things to consider when using any of them.

Trial them and if you can't avoid them, they appear to be an interesting concept but as of yet I'm not sold on the technology. It used to be that you was always advised not to use headphones for mixing and mastering but now it ok so long as you buy some room simulation software?

I'm more sold on the speakers that have built in dsp to correct for the room their in!

Aren't those slate ones the ones that come with the hardware, therefore eliminating variables? It's interesting if those are the ones.

I got to agree that monitors with DSP are all the rage right now for me. Saving in order to someday afford a pair of kii three's 😂

I currently use Sonar works with my Adam A7x monitors, but i'm in a fairly small room so not ideal, i have some acoustic treatment, i would like to try the slate vsx system before i buy, but i don't know if the software is vst 2 or 3, i can see from slate audio site that Reason is missing from their youtube DAW tutorials, so reason is not supported!

But isn't that system for headphones and Congress with its own headphones?

You already got monitors and sonar works, as long as you have used the measurement properly with their microphone you're pretty much good to go, just don't turn up the volume above 75 ish dB SPL.... If the slate system is avst you should be able to download a demo and try and see... But since you have SW, your headphones should be supported, and your already have monitors...so you don't actually need any room simulation 🤷‍♂️

Unfortunately Reason is generally not listed as a supported DAW by many developers, if it's available as a vst2 plugin and you can download a trial then that's your best option.

Ok I will give Sienna Free version a trial, thanks,
by the way is this the free version you have? and do you have a list of compatible headphone,
my headphones are Blue Lola, and Sennheiser hd 600

there is a full list of compatible headphones on their web site but it only shows list for paid version not free version.
