KRK ERGO Room Correction System
BONUS: Free set of Auralex MoPads with every ERGO!

A great mix starts with a great recording room. But when it comes to achieving the most accurate mix, your room may have the upper hand. Like any room, your studio's acoustics include offending frequencies and room reflections, and none of these are helping your mix. Getting a handle on these problems has traditionally meant the installation of soft foam or fabrics, and that's a great start. But now you can get even closer to a perfect room, and a perfect mix, because the future of studio sound is here, and it's called ERGO.

Hear the Difference
The KRK ERGO (Enhanced Room Geometry Optimization) is a digital room analysis/correction system - consisting of the ERGO unit, a microphone and control software - designed to measure and analyze phase/frequency problems within a listening environment. The powerful digital signal processor in the ERGO unit processes audio to correct for the offending issues. So, you can stop worrying about your studio's acoustics and start focusing on your mix!

KRK ERGO on sale at TrueSoundControl.comThe KRK ERGO is for the recording engineer, DJ or musician who monitors in less-than-perfect acoustic conditions - isn't that most of us? Its high-end sound quality makes it perfect for the discriminating audio professional, while the affordable price puts it within reach of the typical recording hobbyist. Every studio needs an ERGO, because even the most accurate monitor in an imperfect room isn't going to solve mixing problems, but ERGO will. The KRK ERGO also makes your mix translate from the studio to different environments. How good is a great track that only sounds great in your room? With ERGO, your mix sounds great everywhere you or your fans want to hear it. Want better sound, and in more places? Put an ERGO in the mix.

"ERGO produces the best mix for a given room;
a mix that will translate better to other listening environments,
since it was mixed in a 'perfect' room."

Smarter Than Your Average Gear
Room correction products aren't new, but thank goodness ERGO is. While conventional room correction systems utilize simple analysis and limited bands of EQ (often fewer than 8), ERGO uses multiple measurements and proprietary algorithms to create a 3D image of the room, and then applies 1024 dynamic filters to control the audio environment. Our 3D model allows users to preserve the "good" characteristics of the room, while correcting the bad. ERGO doesn't color the sound or produce an artificially sterile environment. ERGO produces the best mix for a given room; a mix that will translate better to other listening environments, since it was mixed in a "perfect" room.

If the sophisticated room analysis wasn't enough, the KRK ERGO can help around your studio in other ways too. ERGO can switch between two sets of full range monitors, or two monitors and a subwoofer via its front panel controls. Switch easily between monitors or monitors and sub systems. Each set of speakers will have its own correction filters. ERGO also provides a choice of selecting between two stereo audio streams through the headphone output. And ERGO's large volume control delivers ultra-smooth response of ERGO's A/B/Sub outputs.

Plays Well With Others
The KRK ERGO integrates with all PC and Mac-based computer recording systems. In these environments ERGO appears as a standard PC or Mac Firewire audio interface, so setup is easy and compatibility is assured. With ERGO's analog inputs you can still use whatever non-computer based recording hardware you are currently using without having to re-configure your system. In an analog mode ERGO sits between your existing recording interface or mixer and your speakers. ERGO also integrates with Pro Tools by allowing a S/PDIF signal to be digitally connected. Assign the S/PDIF output of your Pro Tools rig as your main Left/Right outputs, then connect ERGO, and experience perfect sound. And because all processing resides in ERGO, no overhead is needed from the computer audio system.

Built To Last
Finally, the KRK ERGO is all about quality construction. From its sturdy anodized aluminium case and die-cast end-caps, to its use of 120dB SNR converters, ERGO feels and sounds solid and robust. Smart and strong, ERGO is the perfect solution in an imperfect world.

The KRK ERGO system includes:

  • ERGO processing unit
  • Room Monitoring Microphone
  • Control Software
  • BONUS: Free set of Auralex MoPads
