Ciao,
È veramente un ottimo prodotto, complimenti. Ti chiedo se è possibile avere la correzione per Avantone MP-1 e Yinyoo KZ ZST?
Grazie mille e buon lavoro

I bought VHS because I saw the Superlux HD681 headphones were in the list… I put the plugin under test, and I was pleasantly surprised at the beginning… Then I noticed there was something wrong. So I started investigating to see if there was anything wrong on my side… That's where I stupidly remembered I don't have the Superlux "HD681", but the "HD681 EVO", which is the last version, and which I guess is even more mainstream than the "HD681" !
So please, please, PLEASE, Saverio, add the new HD681 "EVO" version to the list… I'll be very happy to add this plugin permanently to my main bus and hopefully to come back with a new 5 stars comment, as the plugin looks very promising !
For the moment, I leave 4 stars, while looking forward to seing the headphones list updated…
Congratulations, and keep up the good work !
Jerome

Works great with my Sennheiser hd 280 pros. Real big difference, so much clearer and more balanced. Thanks so much for this plugin!

I don't know why but the translation works waaaay better than with Sonarworks. With Sonarworks profile on beyerdynamics dt770pro 250ohm the profile was too much and made the sound so muffled. So as a result I mixed too harsh. And you pay 20x more with sonarworks haha xD

Combined with GhZ OpenCanStudio it's magic. Perfect Translation to my Adam Speakers and when listening to the export without headphone correction it sounds more balanced than before. Nice job!

Looking for more room profiles in the future!

I had to come back to leave my 2nd review, and please read to the end:
I've been using VHS for months. Hence, I can confidently say I gave it a thorough test phase.
The result and conclusion:
VHS lives in my monitor FX chain, being permanently switched ON.
After all these months it feels like an integral part of my headphones.
I've been an audio engineer for 25 years. This is the first headphone correction tool that works for my brain. In the meantime – by getting used to the modified HP sound and increasingly trusting it – I can even create headphone-mixes that translate well on other systems without the need of using reference tracks. And 90% of the time I have just the headphone correction switched on, without the room.
In comparison, the competitors are like toys to me. They are doing great things but they just don't help me with my decisions. VHS does.

The key to better mixes with this tool is: switch it on and leave it! Really, forget it! This is not meant to be a quick mix check tool that you switch on and off. If you have a dedicated monitor FX chain like in REAPER, insert VHS and leave it on. Make that your default setting and trust it. Do not switch it off. If you do, your mix will sound wrong to you because you aren't used to the actual sound of your headphones anymore, but that's a good thing. If you really want to listen to your mix WITHOUT VHS out of curiosity, change the headphones before you push play. Use another brand, another type, whatever, but not the ones you used for mixing with VHS.
Trust me, after some weeks your mixes WILL improve!

Another thing that comes to mind: why not allow / implement changing the calibration by the user?

So this way, if you know your real deviation from the headphones brand calibration you have, you can apply that deviation based on the brand calibration.

For example, if you know from experience/tests with your headphones that they have further bias on the high end, then you would move the calibration eq on the high end further down to neutralize it.

Lovis says:
May 20, 2023 at 10:07 am

This is a great start in that area, what a clever combination of room simulation and headphone correction! Only one thing I'd like to suggest: How about introducing calibration of specific headphones as each headphone has a peculiar deviation from the brand? Then you would be on the same level as competition :-). Keep up the good work!

Great price for this level of utility! Please add Sennheiser HD215 profile to the database. Cheap and cheerful headphones, but I'd be lost without them!

Bellissimo plugin, da un po' fisso sulla mia master buss chain. Rispetto ai competitor che ho potuto provare, è più semplice nell'uso e più "musicale" nell'ascolto. Perfettamente in linea col motto del brand, plugin che fanno il loro lavoro. Davvero consigliato

I am on budget works, thank you for creating this plugin. Using this plugin for system wide audio in my OS also, not only for DAW. Currently using Superlux HD668B, and hoping one preset will be made for OneOdio Pro 50.

Markus says:
May 1, 2023 at 2:03 pm

Great plugin! Using it with Superlux 668B. EQ curve and reflection, crosstalk between left and right is excellent. You don't have to spend a lot of money, this plugin does exactly what you want. Full 5 stars, fantastic work HoRNet!!!

Salve, ho usato tantissimi plugin simili senza ottenere mai la piena soddisfazione, HoRNet VHS è molto efficace e soprattutto leggero.
L'unica cosa che lo renderebbe perfetto sarebbe l'aggiunta della cuffia HifiMan He400i 2020 visto che attualmente sto usando la simulazione della He 4XX ma non è lo stesso.
Comunque complimenti!!!

Always skeptical about these plug ins that can come very close to snake oil, but comparing my DT 770s to my speakers, they were so near identical in sound. I am very pleased with VHS and highly recommend this great plug in.

Bruno says:
April 13, 2023 at 6:07 pm

Very interesting plugin, please add also Superlux HD681B and Sennheiser HD206 ! Thank you.

Incredible usefull, now with DT880 250ohm studio standard hp´s, but as well for inexpensive Superlux headphones now your the best!

BIG THANKS AT SAVERIO AND YOUR TEAM

I've never bothered with headphone correctional plugins before, but I was very pleasantly surprised by VHS. I find myself leaving it on most of the time, even during recording, because my headphones sound a lot more neutral through it. Plus the room simulations gives the sound "context" (in lack of a better word).

gfdtr3435 says:

pls add dt770 pro 80 ohm..nice plugin!

April 7, 2023 at 8:37 pm

Nice monitoring plugin, and very affordable. I have the ATH-M50x cans, and it dealt with the low end extremely well. It would be great, if we could dial in a measurement from the back wall to any speaker positions and listener placement. I'm just curious about the room treatment, was there 4 bass traps and ceiling cloud used for the profile?

Aaron Walker says:
April 7, 2023 at 4:35 pm

Great, thank you! Next evolution: allow the plugin to import the IR/filter settings from REW into VHS to calibrate your speakers to compensate for your room. You'll sell a lot of units 🙂 Talk to REW first and form a partnership.

Very subtle room simulation I think, but that's maybe the intension. Great idea (and price), but please add the profile for Beyerdynamics DT 770 Pro 250 OHM.

Chris says:
March 21, 2023 at 9:41 pm

This is the best headphone correction plugin I've tried, and the room simulation is top notch. Sometimes I totally forget that I am mixing on headphones. Great job Hornet

Erik says:

Would buy in a minute if it supported my Beyerdynamic DT 880's.

Ciao, plugin fantastico ma se posso dare un consiglio inserirei nell'elenco anche questi modelli, sono molto usati:

JTS – HP535, HP565

GRADO – SR60, SR 80, SR325

Grazie!

The new version… 1.0.3. I notice that the stereo image is still like listening to headphones… the distance from the speakers adds a room reverb, but the stereo separation does not change based on the listening position. I would expect some summing in the central image… or reduction of the stereo image with listening position. There is another thing that I've noticed with 1.0.2 and 1.0.3… because there is a small degree of summing of the L and R channels the volume increase overloads my output channel. If I input a signal with TP -1.0db the plugin overloads my output bus (triggers an overload detection). For now I've had to put another plugin after VHS in order to counteract this… It would be good if the output has the ability to automatically (or manually) level match (attenuate the output) depending on the settings, to make it output at the same level as the input volume.

Alfred Grupstra says:
March 14, 2023 at 1:55 pm

This plugin really does the trick. My mixes are clearer on every system since I mix with VHS on the master bus. And what's more, it's the first plugin that support my headphone!
In the first version there was a problem but the support is great and the problem is solved now. Thanks Maso for your great work!
And don't forget the price, compare it with others and you walk with a smile forever!

This is what I had been waiting for! I had founded the other correction plugins to be ultra over priced. This Plug in deserves every penny.

Vince says:
March 9, 2023 at 10:06 am

I like the sound of the room simulation. very subtle and natural. It doesn't support my headphone though so I can't really use it and have to rely on other products. Please add the profile for the Beyerdynamics 1990 Pro (balanced). Best. Vince

What else can I say… another fantastic plugin, I much needed! I have the KRK-6400 headphones.

Thankyou Sergio and team.

I was using the control room simulations of another major brand – guess you all know which brand I'm talking about. I got CLA's room. Worked fine but I had one big issue with it: It sounded a bit too boomy and dialling back the ambience didn't help. But I liked the frequency response correction for my headphones because without they sounded too nasal in comparison.
This is where HoRNet's VHS comes in handy. It also gives me only the headphone correction if I want that, and it reliably cuts out all those nasal mids. Fantastic! If I need reflection and crosstalk between left and right I CAN switch on the unintrusive room simulation.
Pulling back the mids of the mix because they annoy me in my headphones just to find out they are missing when checking the mix in my car should be a thing of the past now. Thank you Saverio!
PS: Will there be additional speaker simulations some day? And an adjustable distance between the speakers?

Darius says:
March 2, 2023 at 8:12 pm

I have 2 headphones on the list (AKG702 and the Focal Listen Professional)
and after trying the demo I bought it in less than 5 minutes! The nicest improvement was with the Focals. Even after a good 20hour burn in, the mid nasally bump was still harsh on my ears and I was so close to boxing them up and selling them…. But now thanks to VHS they are very much in use again!
The AKGs get a bit of a low end boost and the 'air' taken out of them and I'm not sure if I prefer them flat as a listener (but that's the point isn't it?) But when mixing, it's amazing how close these very different headphones sound with this great value plugin!
Thanks Hornet!

Fantastic alternative to other more expensive plugins. It would be nice to have "Grado" brand headphones as well

Jeremy says:
February 28, 2023 at 12:53 am

Great plugin! Nice to see an affordable competitor to the big boys. Luckily, you have my two brands (ATH-M50x & MDR7506), and it deals with the low end bumps nicely. I would prefer it if there was some auto-gain compensation; the profiles tend to lower the gain by 6-8dB, making A/B-ing difficult.

Jake says:
February 27, 2023 at 7:23 am

Very interesting plugin, though it doesn't support my specific headphone model. It would be awesome if there were a way to use a measurement mic to add custom headphone profiles. Fantastic idea though, and I might consider buying a pair of headphones from the supported list in the future to take full advantage of this plugin.

Leeon says:
February 25, 2023 at 11:45 pm

I bought this straight away without trying the demo. The concept is great but it doesn't cater for my studio headphones BD 770 PRO 80 OHM. This is something potential buyers should be mindful of

A M says:

Ciao, plugin SUPER!
Puoi aggiungere il brand SuperLux alle cuffie? Sono abbastanza diffuse. Grazie.
