Advanced:
A file created in Standard mode can be opened in Advanced mode to change correction range and room
gain. To do this, change Targets then click on Calculate, then Upload.
Since rooms and systems vary the only advice that Anthem technical support can provide without being
at your house to hear your system is to use the auto-detected settings. The alternative is trial and error.
To change the amount of room gain, the Force checkbox has to be checked for the manually entered change
in dB to take effect once clicking on Calculate. Auto-detected room gain will be at or near 0 dB if bass
absorbers are used or the in-room response of the speakers shows no such gain.
To restore auto-detected settings, click on Auto Detect then Calculate.
Clicking on Erase uploads flat parameters.
Can one set of measurements be used across Movie and Music speaker configurations but with
different settings applied? Can the subwoofer be disabled only in the Music configuration?
The answer to both questions is yes.
• When measuring (Standard or Advanced), set the Music configuration to be Same As Movie.
• In the Advanced mode Targets panel change settings as desired.
• To omit the subwoofer, change its frequency to No Speaker by making it lower than 25 Hz. This
can be done with the scroll arrow or by removing the frequency with the cursor and Backspace
key on the computer’s keyboard. Removing the center or surround speakers is not necessary for
listening to 2-channel sources in stereo – if a surround mode is not selected (section 4.8), sound
will not come from the center and surround speakers.
Updating ARC:
Check www.anthemAV.com periodically for ARC software updates. The download contains revision history,
which may also indicate that the processor requires an update for the ARC version to work correctly.
If a newer version is posted and you would like to use it, check your current version:
• Run Anthem Room Correction in Advanced mode.
• Click on Help then click on About. The version number will be displayed.
Proceed only if your version is not the latest:
• Download the latest software from our web site to Desktop.
• When download is complete, right-click on the downloaded .zip file and extract it to Desktop.
• Open the extracted folder and double click on setup. Software installation instructions will appear
on your screen. If you are installing ARC on the computer for the first time, copy your two
serialized files from your software CD to the extracted folder on Desktop before double-clicking
on setup.
This way they will be added to Program Files as the software is installed.
• When installation is complete, you can delete the downloaded file and the extracted folder.
To use a measurement made with a previous version with a newer version that has changes in processing,
open it in Advanced mode, click on Calculate then Upload.
