Is this hocus pocus or do these things work.
I have no horse in the race about mastering as I only work in Post (where we essentially are our own mastering engineers). As to systems like IK's ARC though... definitely Not snake oil, it's very good. In an ideal world it should be used in addition to acoustic treatment rather than as a substitute, but I think most domestic studios are compromised acoustically due to size/shape/budget/practicality. I tried ARC and bought it straight away.
