Barefoot Sound hit a sweet spot when it introduced the Footprint01, the first in a new line of active 3-way speakers designed specifically for today’s evolving production workflows. Recording engineers, producers, composers, musicians and beat-makers as well as post-production professionals quickly recognized that the Footprint01 offered the sonic character and design features of Barefoot Sound’s high-end studio monitors, but in a smaller package and at a more affordable price.Now, the best 3-way monitor in its class has been joined by the Footprint02, a similar but smaller active nearfield speaker at an even more affordable price, offering the same uncompromising audio quality and design characteristics as the Footprint01. But these two models don’t just share each other’s looks and quality, it also the same Barefoot signature designs — Dual-Force™ technology opposing sub woofers, dual ring radiator tweeter and Multi-Emphasis Monitor Emulation™ or MEME — Technology first featured in their flagship MicroMain and MiniMain series.The Footprint02 looks a lot like its big sister: side-mounted dual opposing paper cone subwoofers; dual ring radiator tweeter and aluminum cone midrange driver set in an aluminum front sub baffle; sleek, rounded corners and edges, minimizing cabinet diffraction. The front baffle speaker configuration is instantly recognizable, with the tweeter positioned below the midrange woofer, an unusual geometry that generates the acoustic focus at the center of the cabinet.Inside they are nearly identical. The Footprint02 houses 2-way DSP crossover feeds, dual Class D amplifiers modules, as befits its reduced cabinet dimensions which is about 60 percent the volume of the Footprint01. Dual opposing 6.5-inch opposing subwoofers offering deep bass extension. The Footprint02 may be small but it is mighty, offering all the characteristics of a Barefoot Sound speaker — exemplary sound quality, 3-D imaging and wide dynamic range.Dual-Force is a core Barefoot technology, placing two subwoofers in opposition to eliminate cabinet vibrations, eliminating all vibration at the source. The only sound heard comes from the drivers, not the cabinet. The dual ring radiator tweeter is another key design component. As the wavelength of high frequency information approaches the diameter of a tweeter diaphragm, the dispersion begins to narrow, adversely affecting the image. Combining a center waveguide with the dual ring tweeter ensures a wider high frequency dispersion pattern at the listening position. Barefoot’s MEME technology enhances the versatility of the Footprint02, allowing it to fit into a broad range of applications: playback room, mobile setup, home, and production environments. MEME offers true emulations modeled on the performance and character of mix cube speakers, the infamous white coned speaker we all know well, and consumer hi-fi speakers, allowing the mixer the ability to reference all of those iconic monitors with a flick of a switch. No more need of multiple monitors cluttering up your bridge.Features:Dual-Force™ TechnologyDual ring radiator tweeterMEME™ TechnologyWide dynamic range350 Watts Total Power per monitorMore affordable price $2,750 USD a pairDescription: 3-way active monitor with MEME™ voice emulationControls: Input level stepped attenuator, MEME voice selectInput Impedance: Balanced XLR, 50k Ohm ImpedanceSensitivity: 90dB @ 1 meter with -15dBV input signal (Level control set to 0dB)Frequency Response: 42Hz – 45kHz (±3dB), 52Hz – 40kHz (±1dB)Bass Response: -3 dB @ 36Hz, Q = 0.707 Slope = 18 dB/octaveCabinet: 13 liters total internal volume, Sealed woofer and midrange enclosures, Machined aluminum baffle plate, Polyurethane acoustic damping throughoutCrossover Frequencies: 180 / 3600 Hz (Passive crossover between Midrange and Tweeter)Tweeter: 1″ ring radiator, Low distortion motor, Rear waveguide chamberMidrange: 4.0″ aluminum cone, Aluminum phase plug, Low distortion motor, +/- 3.5 mm linear excursionWoofers: 6.5″ paper cone, +/- 8.2 mm linear excursionHigh Frequency Amplifier: 150WLow Frequency Amplifier: 200WAC Power Input: 85 VAC to 265 VACPower Consumption: Idle: 2W, Maximum: 320WWeight: Speaker: 27.9 lbs each (12.66 kg)Shipping: 33.6 lbs each (15.25 kg)Dimensions HxWxD: 12.12 x 8.7 x 13.0 inches (308 x 222 x 330 mm)
Introducing the MicroSub45. Featuring Barefoot Sound’s innovative Dual-Force™ technology, the MicroSub45 brings the MicroMain45 to new power and depths. The subwoofers boasts dual-opposing 8” subs in each of the two cabinets. The MicroMain45 has turned into a cult speaker that musicians love. A common request from users since the release of the MicroMain45 is for Barefoot Sound to build a companion subwoofer. So Barefoot has built a subwoofer as an off-the-menu item. But as demands have been overwhelming, it’s time to bring this product into the light.Introducing the MicroSub45 featuring Barefoot Sound’s innovative Dual-Force™ technology The MicroSub45 brings the MicroMain45 to new power and depths with a pair of dual-opposing 8” subs in each cabinet and Dual-Force™ Technology.The MicroMain45 is the only Barefoot that doesn’t feature Dual-Force™ Technology. But now there is a path for MicroMain45 users who want to take it to the next level. Or if you’re interested in a pair of MicroMain45s and want the option to upgrade down the road as your needs grow, this is the perfect solution!The MicroMain45s can be placed on top or below the MicroSub45, depending on your preference. The tilt feature allows the MM45 to be positioned down to the listening sweet spot and it is designed so that the stack is very sturdy and will not slip.The subwoofers is the MicroSub45s. When packaged with the MicroMain45s, it becomes the MicroStack45. The stack features six high excursion 8” drivers, all designed to work seamlessly together and as a single unit. Each MicroSub45 features analog crossovers which allows analog signal paths into the sub and also into the MicroMain45. It crosses over at 80hz and goes down to 25hz.Προδιαγραφές:Comes in a pairDual 8” subs in each cabinetDual-Force™ Technology1000 Watts of PowerBass response down to 25HzBalanced analog High-Pass filterΧαρακτηριστικά:Crossover Frequency: 80 HzSubwoofers: Dual 8″ aluminum cone with high linearity motor, +/- 13 mm linear excursionAmplifier: 500W in each cabinetAC Power Input: 85 VAC to 265 VACPower Consumption: Idle: 5W, Maximum: 765WWeight: Speaker: 45 lbs each (20.5 kg)Shipping: 54.5 lbs each (25 kg)Dimensions HxWxD: Cabinet: 14.0 x 9.5 x 13.0 inches (356 x 241 x 330 mm)Overall: 14.0 x 10.25 x 13.6 inches (356 x 260 x 345 mm)
As a 3-way active monitor, the Barefoot MicroMain45 utilizes the same amplifier, signal path and driver technology of the MiniMain12. Downsizing the hefty 130+ lbs size of the original to a tight 35+ lbs package, the MicroMain45 features an 8” aluminum woofer, two x 2.5” aluminum midranges and a 1” tweeter. With a bass response of -3dB @ 40Hz, frequency response of 40Hz – 45 kHz (±3dB) and 53Hz – 40kHz (±1dB), this is the sound that Barefoot enthusiasts have come to know and love.Founded on the idea of creating a new type of audio monitor, Barefoot Sound was started by Thomas Barefoot to meet the growing needs of small to mid-sized project studios. By offering well-designed monitors that could take the space of several sets of speakers, audio enthusiasts are able to have more room for other types of gear, while still having an impeccable monitoring system. The Barefoot Sound MM45 monitors follow in this lineage of incredible speakers like the MicroMain27 and MicroMain35.MEME™ Technology: Despite the advantages of high resolution monitors, Thomas Barefoot realizes that many engineers still use their NS10M’s † and mix cubes as secondary references. These speakers have long traditions and people find them familiar and useful for focusing in on certain aspects of their mix. However, crowding one’s console with those extra boxes degrades the sound field of the primary reference monitors. Not to mention, they are no longer manufactured, they need amplifiers, cable runs, and they consume more studio space. The solution is to make the MM45 sound and translate like those speakers. With the turn of a knob one can switch from the MicroMain45′s brutally revealing “Flat” response to the warmer and sweeter “Hi-Fi” setting, generically emulating the sound of some high end consumer audio gear. More specifically the “Old School” setting closely emulates the sound of the NS10M nearfield, while the “Cube” setting emulates the mid-centric sound of classic mix cubes The idea is not to perfectly replicate every subtle quirk of these venerable old speakers. That would be impossible. But the MM45 can capture the essence of how they behave and translate, modeling their frequency, phase and transient responses, dynamic compression and even specific distortion components. If you know how to work on these speakers you will feel very comfortable working on the new MM45′s emulation settings.Χαρακτηριστικά:Controls:: Input level stepped attenuator, Equalization contourInput Impedance:: 50k OhmFrequency Response:: 40Hz – 45kHz (±3dB),53Hz – 40kHz (±1dB)Bass Response:: -3 dB @ 35Hz, Q = 0.707Slope = 12 dB/octaveCabinet:: 14 liters total internal volume, Sealed woofer and midrange enclosures, Machined aluminum baffle plate, Long fiber wool acoustic damping throughoutCrossover Frequencies:: 600 / 3600 HzTweeter:: 1″ ring radiator, Advanced geometry motor, Rear waveguide chamberAmplifier: 180W HypexMidranges:: 2 x 2.5″ aluminum cones, Advanced geometry motor, +/- 2 mm linear excursionAmplifier: 180W HypexSubwoofers:: 8″ aluminum cone with high linearity motor, +/- 13 mm linear excursionAmplifier: 250W HypexAC Power Input:: Nominal 115 VAC or 230 VAC selectablePower Consumption:: Idle: 18W, Maximum: 400WWeight:: Speaker: 37.5 lbs each (17 kg)Shipping: 47 lbs each (21 kg)Dimensions HxWxD:: Cabinet: 11.0 x 15.5 x 10.75 inches (279 x 394 x 273 mm)Overall: 11.0 x 15.5 x 11.0 inches (279 x 394 x 279 mm)
Barefoot Sound is proud to introduce the revolutionary new MiniMain12, possibly the most accurate, revealing and technologically advanced recording monitor ever made. This is a bold statement, but the MiniMain12 is an incredibly bold speaker. With vanishing low distortion, breathtakingly wide dynamic range, ultra-fast transient response plus our amazing MEME™(Multi Emphasis Monitor Emulation™) technology. The MiniMain12 is a 4-way active system with 7 drive units housed in sealed enclosures spanning 20Hz to 40kHz with vanishingly low distortion, breathtaking dynamic range and ultra-fast transient response.Every driver has an under-hung voice coil moving inside an advanced geometry motor that enables it make extremely long linear excursions. The ring radiator tweeter is incredibly detailed and produces very wide dispersion out to its highest frequencies. The aluminum cone subwoofers, woofers and midranges radiate as perfect pistons to at least 2.5 octaves beyond their respective bandwidths. Barefoot has teamed up with the brilliant Bruno Putzeys of Hypex to develop the powerful and completely transparent amplifier stage of the MM12. Melding the system together is a groundbreaking DSP crossover that has taken Thomas Barefoot more than 4 years to develop. With beautifully designed high end converts and cutting edge proprietary filtering techniques the MiniMain12 produces such a seamless and coherent wavefront that, if you dare, you can actually listen to this speaker from less than 3 feet away with no sonic compromise. And yes, the MM12 works perfectly out to far field distances as well, producing SPLs equivalent to big mains. If all this weren’t enough, the MiniMain12 brings yet another revolutionary feature into the mix – MEME™(Multi Emphasis Monitor Emulation™) technology. While no other monitor in the world can match the MM12’s linearity and transparency, the MM12 actually has the capability to emulate other speakers!

This is a bold statement, but the MiniMain12 is an incredibly bold speaker. With vanishing low distortion, breathtakingly wide dynamic range, ultra-fast transient response plus our amazing MEME™(Multi Emphasis Monitor Emulation™) technology. The MiniMain12 is a 4-way active system with 7 Over a decade ago, Thomas Barefoot applied his expertise and experience as an engineer, scientist and inventor in the computer industry to his lifelong passion for music. Approaching the pro audio industry with a fresh pair of eyes, he concluded that every project would benefit from using monitors with the same sound quality, dynamic range and bass extension at each stage of the production process. The innovative reference monitor designs that Thomas subsequently developed not only deliver the same performance and quality from recording through mastering, they also turned the studio monitor speaker business on its head, outperforming many well-established high-end products.The MasterStack12 represents the pinnacle of Thomas’ achievements in monitor speaker design to-date. Barefoot’s flagship reference monitor system is a 4.5-way active modular tower with 10 drive units — a 1-in. ring radiator tweeter, two 2.5-in. mid-range, three 7-in. woofers and four 12-in. subwoofers — housed in two cabinets. A third enclosure houses signal and power distribution and may be optionally used as a decoupling base unit for each tower.What is a 4.5-way system?In a typical 4-way system, subwoofers, woofers, mid-range drivers and tweeters all operate within discrete frequency bands, transitioning from one to the next at the frequencies set in the crossover networks. In the MasterStack12 system, all three woofers work together in the lower frequencies of the band, down to the frequency at which the subwoofers take over. But only two woofers extend up to the mid-range band crossover point. Having three woofers working together in the lower portion of the band offers lower distortion through greater efficiency. At higher frequencies, where the signal becomes increasingly more directional, there is a smooth transition to the wider dispersion pattern created by just two woofers.Four speakers in oneLike all Barefoot monitors, the MasterStack12 features revolutionary MEME™ (Multi-Emphasis Monitor Emulation™) technology, which harnesses sophisticated DSP modeling to mimic the frequency, phase, transient response, dynamic compression and distortion characteristics of various classic nearfield studio monitors. Many people still like to reference their work on old, familiar monitors to check how their mixes will translate or to focus on a specific aspect. But with Barefoot monitors you can put those other reference speakers into storage and free up some space on the console, because one set of MasterStack12 monitors can take the place of three alternate pairs.Using a wired remote you can switch your Barefoot monitors through four different voices and preview your mix as it would sound through three alternate reference speakers, all without moving from the optimum stereo listening position. “Old School” rolls off the extreme highs and lows and brings the mid-range presence forward, capturing the essence of the NS10M. “Cube” is an homage to the classic full-range micro-monitor and is a useful reference setting for any mix that you expect to be played on earbuds through a laptop or handheld device. “HiFi” behaves like a home audiophile speaker, warming up the mid-range and sweetening the highs, for client playback or just listening in the control room. “Flat” selects the true, revealing Barefoot sound.

The MicroMain26 is a 4-way active system with 6 drive units housed in sealed enclosures spanning 30Hz to 45kHz with vanishingly low distortion, breathtaking dynamic range and ultra-fast transient response. The ring radiator tweeter is incredibly detailed and produces very wide dispersion out to its highest frequencies. The 2.5” aluminum cone midrange is housed in a cutting edge 3D printed waveguide enclosure.The 5.25″ woofers feature a phalanx of advanced technology, yielding upper bass and lower midrange detail that rivals any driver on the planet. Barefoot has teamed up with the brilliant Bruno Putzeys of Hypex to develop the powerful and completely transparent amplifier stage used in every Barefoot monitor.

Barefoot Sound’s new Footprint line of powered near-field monitors delivers the company’s uncompromising audio performance and build quality to engineers, producers, composers and musicians working in smaller spaces and with smaller budgets.The new line launches with the Barefoot Footprint01, an active 3-way speaker that shares the same Thomas Barefoot signature designs — Dual-Force™ technology opposing subwoofers, dual ring radiator tweeter and Multi-Emphasis Monitor Emulation™ technology — as the MicroMain and MasterStack monitor lines. Footprint01 features dual opposing 8-inch paper cone subwoofers, a 4-inch aluminum cone midrange driver and a 1-inch dual ring radiating tweeter, components that all share a lineage with Barefoot’s other products.The 2-way DSP crossover feeds dual Class D amplifier modules that drive the subwoofers with 500 W of power and deliver 150 W to the mid- and high-frequency drivers. There is a passive crossover network between the midrange driver and the tweeter. The midrange woofer is positioned above the tweeter in an unusual speaker geometry that creates the acoustic focus in the center of the cabinet.Thomas Barefoot’s approach to reference monitor speaker design has always been to provide audio professionals with exemplary sound quality, wide dynamic range and bass extension at every stage of the audio production process, from re cording through mixing to mastering. But not every project begins or ends in a high-end studio that offers Barefoot MicroMain or MasterStack monitors. The new Footprint01 model is Barefoot Sound’s response to evolving modern workflows, making the company’s ultra-high performance technologies available to audio professionals working in home-based facilities, smaller writing, editing or post production rooms, or on the road. Now, composers, songwriters, musicians, beat- makers, post production specialists and others can benefit from the Barefoot sound, whatever their work environment.Just like every other Barefoot monitor, Footprint01 allows you to preview your mix as it would sound through three alternate reference speakers through Barefoot’s revolutionary Multi-Emphasis Monitor Emulation™ technology. MEME™ uses sophisticated DSP modeling to mimic the frequency, phase, transient response, dynamic compression and distortion characteristics of a variety of classic near-field studio monitors. Many people still like to reference their work on old, familiar speakers to check how their mixes will translate or to focus on a specific aspect. But in smaller workspaces there may be no room for even a second set of reference speakers. Barefoot’s powerful MEME technology effectively helps overcome that challenge through its four-in-one solution.
