Audient has launched it’s latest product, and it’s not an Audio Interface. Following on from their success with the flagship ORIA ATMOS interface Audient has extracted the room correction component and distilled it in a standalone hardware DSP system powered by Sonarworks. The idea is to provide a stand alone, low latency hardware room correction system that is not reliant on a plugin that sits on your DAW master bus. Once you have made the necessary software measurements, four Sonarworks calibration profiles can be stored onto the ORIA MINI for standalone use. This takes the strain off your computer and significantly reduces latency.
If you can’t trust what you’re hearing, you can’t trust your mix. The truth is your room is likely holding you back. The Audient ORIA Mini is the room correction powerhouse that sits between your audio interface and speakers – transforming your studio monitoring and giving you an instant performance boost. Audient has partnered with Sonarworks to bring you a dedicated hardware solution that analyses and corrects your room’s acoustic imperfections in minutes, taking your studio from a guess-and-check system to a reliable professional monitoring environment.
On the rear of ORIA MINI you will find a balanced stereo input on TRS connectors. If your audio interface has a digital output you can instead connect ORIA MINI up via the digital (optical) connection bypassing the extra conversion. There is a balanced stereo out on TRS connections plus a dedicated Sub out for bass management. Lastly you’ll find the Bus Powered USB C connection.
The front of ORIA MINI has a Signal and Peak indicator plus a button to switch between 4 individual Sonarworks Profiles.

A special ORIA MINI specific Sonarworks software Licence can be bought together with ORIA from you local Audient/Sonarworks music retailer. There are two software licences available – a full version for new Sonarworks users or a crossgrade licence for existing Sonarworks users.
