Ideal for studios engaged in postproduction efforts such as mixing, mastering, and sound design, Clarity M from TC Electronic contains a comprehensive set of precision loudness monitoring tools for full compliance with all major broadcast loudness standards. Supporting stereo and 5.1 configurations, Clarity M is an essential studio tool.

Clarity M sports a plethora of metering technologies, including the LM6 Loudness Radar Meter (a true-peak meter), a correlation meter, a downmix compliance meter, an RTA (real-time analyzer), and much more. The large, bright 7" LCD screen offers a wealth of easy-to-read information at a glance, greatly improving your workflow. Connectivity is simple with a DB-15 connector for six channels of AES3 digital audio and GPIO, a USB port for direct plug-in monitoring on most major DAWs, and an optical TOSLINK connector for stereo input. Clarity M includes 2.5mm hex key, an AC adapter, a DB-15 to multi BNC breakout cable, a BNC to RCA adapter, and a USB cable.

Audio Toolbox
CLARITY M provides a veritable toolbox of meter types to help you make the right mix and mastering decisions for truly professional recordings:

• RTA: the high-accuracy RTA with 1/3 octave resolution and individual band zoom provides a great overview of the spectral distribution of your mix
• True-Peak: based on TC Electronic's highly acclaimed True-Peak Technology, the Clarity M is your guard against otherwise unpredictable clipping
• Loudness Radar: the Loudness Radar presents the loudness history of your audio to help you get the levels just right, while momentary loudness in the outer ring keeps an eye on your instant loudness level
• Loudness Measures: loudness statistics not only keep you compliant with loudness standards, they also provide crucial information on other important aspects of your mix, such as micro dynamics and macro dynamics
• Downmix Deviation: the Deviation meter is a fundamental tool to ensure your mix sounds great where it's played back in 5.1, stereo, or mono, thanks to TC Electronic's Loudness Technology, providing the best means for determining the status of your mix
• Correlation: whether you mix in 5.1 surround or stereo, the correlation meter helps identify phasing uses and other anomalies that are easy to miss when relying solely on your ears

Merging Hardware with Plug-Ins
While Clarity M is an exceptional hardware stand-alone desktop meter, it also interacts seamlessly with your DAW workflow via plug-in metering—which is available for Pro Tools, Apple Logic Pro, Nuendo, and all other major VST, AU, or AAX compatible DAWs.

Bring Clarity to Your World
Clarity M provides a wealth of digital connectivity. Unbalanced AES3 (coaxial) and S/PDIF are available right out of the box, and optional adapters enable you to connect standard AES/EBU with ease. Additionally, you can use the TOSLINK port for optical stereo input and the USB connection to work seamlessly with your favorite DAW.

Myriad Mounting Options
Clarity M includes an integrated stand, making it perfect for any desktop. A pair of mounting holes provides compatibility with RAM-Mounts, allowing convenient attachment to a wall or ceiling. Other options include a suction cup for mounting on hard surfaces and a tough-claw mount for mic stand applications, all of which are available separately.
