Audio Toolbox
The TC Electronic Clarity M Stereo is the audio toolbox every studio needs. Compliant with all major broadcast standards, the Clarity M ensures professional and broadcast-ready results every time.
No need to look any further for crucial information – the Clarity M’s LM6 loudness radar displays all you need on a single screen. Perfect for viewing loudness over time, you can easily monitor individual or master tracks to see exactly where your mix needs to go. And for specific adjustments, streamline your display by adding or subtracting meters to your own needs.
Other metering options include a true-peak meter, downmix compliance, stereo correlation and an RTA (real time analyser). An arsenal of tools give you the ability to quickly and easily find what’s causing problems in your mix.
Stay Connected
The Clarity M works both as an intuitive piece of standalone hardware or can offer effortless integration. Connect easily via USB for VST, AU, and AAX readings from your preferred DAW. With the Clarity M you can get real-time readings from virtually any source.
Additionally, the Clarity M offers unbalanced AES3 (coaxial) and S/PDIF connectivity. And with optional adapters you can connect with external hardware to ensure you sound great no matter where you’re working.
More Than Just Loudness
Not just limited to loudness, the Clarity M Stereo’s Balance-O-Meter assures that your stereo image is perfectly balanced. While a stereo correlation meter tells you instantly of any phase issues in your mix.
Translate from stereo to mono without losing anything. Thanks to the Deviation meter, the Clarity M ensures that your mix sounds professional even when downmixing. Combat unwanted digital distortion in DA converters and MP3/AAC encoders before it even happens. Your results will be ready for streaming anywhere.
Metering Anywhere
The Clarity M features an integrated stand for quick and easy positioning on your desktop. Third-party mounting solutions are also available, such as a RAM Mounts Tough-Claw or a suction cup mount (these mounts must be purchased separately and are not included with the Clarity M). These options allow the Clarity M to be conveniently positioned on microphone stands, tables, walls, and even ceilings. Wherever you put it, the Clarity M gives you a clear view of your mix without taking up any screen real estate.
Built with musicians and producers in mind, the Clarity M gives you consistently professional results while remaining easy-to-use.
