The Footprint®01 Gen2 is a complete reinvention of one of Barefoot Sound’s most acclaimed monitors, redesigned from the ground up to deliver even greater precision, power, and transparency. While the original Footprint®01 set a high standard for compact professional monitors, the Gen2 surpasses it in every meaningful way, both technically and sonically. This next generation model introduces a fully tri-amplified 3-way architecture, providing dedicated Class D amplification for each driver to ensure optimal performance, headroom, and efficiency across the frequency spectrum.
At the heart of the Footprint®01 Gen2 is a suite of newly developed Barefoot drivers, including a 1-inch dual ring radiator tweeter, a 5-inch aluminum cone midrange driver, and dual 8-inch aluminum cone woofers integrated into the cabinet using the proprietary Dual-Force™ Technology coupling system. Engineered for extended linear excursion, reduced distortion, and improved transient response, these custom drivers deliver tighter imaging and a more revealing soundstage.
The new DSP platform features SPOC™ (SPectrally Optimized Conversion), Barefoot’s patented technology that introduces analog crossover filtering before digital conversion, preserving high frequency detail and significantly improving signal to noise ratio. This allows the Gen2 to achieve higher resolution, improved clarity, and ultra low latency for an unmatched mixing and monitoring experience.
To support all this technological advancement, the cabinet itself has been acoustically refined with increased internal volume, optimized bracing, and enhanced damping, housed in a sealed enclosure with a sleek industrial finish. Together, these innovations make the Footprint®01 Gen2 not just a worthy successor but a truly next level monitor that brings flagship performance to a wider range of studios and creators.
Whether you’re mixing in stereo or building a 7.1.4 immersive studio, the Barefoot Sound Footprint®01 Gen2 delivers elite performance in a footprint that’s right-sized for today’s production environments. It’s the perfect fusion of next-generation engineering, real-world versatility, and Barefoot’s legendary sonic signature.
