AURA · Measurement-driven room intelligence
Measure the room. Then earn every correction.
AURA combines microphone validation, stereo measurement, room-response analysis and real-time FIR correction. The goal is not to flatten everything; it is to understand the measured room and intervene where the profile justifies it.
The AURA workflow
Measurement first. Correction second.
AURA treats calibration as a chain: select the measurement input, validate it, measure the stereo system in the room, build the profile, then run live playback with the correction state visible.
Validate the chain
Check usable level, clipping, bandwidth and signal detection.
Measure stereo
Run the room measurement sequence.
Build the profile
Analyse the response and prepare FIR correction.
Run live
Apply and monitor correction during playback.
Current AURA workspace
The process stays visible without returning to the old dashboard.
The current desktop UI keeps microphone selection, validation, room geometry, live correction, music protection, measurement confidence and room-decay state inside one coherent AURA workspace.
Trust the input first
Microphone state and validation remain explicit before a room measurement is accepted.
Measured geometry stays visible
The listening position, speakers and room evidence remain part of the live workspace.
Technical state, quieter presentation
Correction targets, music protection and confidence remain visible without presenting AURA as a separate engineering console.
Live Room Twin
Room state, correction and acoustic evidence in one view.
During playback AURA exposes room state, microphone trust, correction authority and active correction targets. The Room Twin is a compact representation of the measured playback environment.
Measured evidence
Room interpretation remains tied to the measurement state rather than presenting generic visuals as acoustic facts.
Controlled correction
The live correction area makes current targets and correction state visible.
Correction is not the only objective
The design also preserves musical content where automatic attenuation would be inappropriate.
AURA is not a substitute for sensible speaker placement or acoustic treatment. It is a measurement and correction layer designed to work with the physical room you actually have.
Microphone guide
Use a measurement microphone, not a voice-processing microphone.
The microphone should represent the acoustic field as predictably as possible.
Measurement hardware
XLR measurement microphone plus a suitable interface, or a calibrated USB measurement microphone designed for acoustic work. Prefer an individual calibration file when available.
Voice-processing hardware
Conference, webcam and headset microphones, especially when AGC, beamforming, noise suppression, echo cancellation or other unknown DSP is active.
AURA and DIRECT
Room correction remains a choice.
DIRECT remains available as the uncorrected reference. Engage AURA when you want the measured correction environment, and return to DIRECT whenever you want the baseline. DSD is intentionally converted to PCM while AURA is active. If DIRECT is selected, NeuraMuse retries the DIRECT DSD/DoP path at the next track boundary; bit-perfect DSD returns only when the local DAC/driver accepts the required DoP carrier. This intentional DSP path is separate from LINK PCM Compatibility.
Understand before changing
Build the room profile from a real microphone measurement.
Use the measured profile
FIR correction is tied to the profile rather than a generic “better sound” preset.
Return to DIRECT
Hear the system/room combination without AURA whenever you need the reference. For a DSD track already in the processed path, DIRECT is applied from the next track boundary.
Measure your own system
AURA only becomes meaningful in your room.
Install NeuraMuse, connect a suitable measurement microphone and build your own room profile.
