My guest, Matthias, is from Dirac: https://www.dirac.com  
My name is John Koetsier, and today we’re speaking with Mathias Johansson, the CEO of Dirac.  
He’s fixing crappy audio with software, and we’re going to find out how ...  
What we talk about:  
- You’re on a quest to fix bad audio. Why?  
- What is the problem with most headphones/earbuds sold today?  
- You are trying to fix it in software … via an app. How? 
- What headphones or earbuds do you support right now? Will you eventually support all brands?  
- Your software learns or adjust to different hardware … how? Do you test all different types of hardware in the studio?  
- How close are you right now … you’re in beta still, right?  
- When I tested, it sounded great. But podcasts had some echo … perhaps because of lower-quality recordings?
