“It only took a moment to establish that the Footprint 01 is fundamentally a very good monitor. The quality of its component parts and engineering shines throughout, especially in its mid-range imaging, clarity, top-end detail and low-frequency power. Another positive sign is its consistency with level. Its character and quality doesn’t vary, loud or quiet. And speaking of loud, the Footprint 01 can play at seriously high levels with ease. The bass end offers as much bandwidth extension as I think anybody could realistically need for nearfield monitoring, and the Footprint 01’s closed-box design contributes to an assuredness and assertiveness on low-frequency transients that helps greatly in establishing the mix foundations of kick drum and bass guitar.” – Sound On Sound

The Best 3-Way Active Monitor In Its Class

The Footprint01 Gen2 is a complete reimagining of one of Barefoot Sound’s most celebrated monitors — redesigned from the ground up to deliver even greater precision, power, and transparency. While the original Footprint01 set a high standard for compact professional monitors, the Gen2 raises the bar in every meaningful way, both technically and sonically.

This next-generation model features a fully tri-amplified 3-way design, with dedicated Class D amplification for each driver to ensure optimal performance, exceptional headroom, and maximum efficiency across the frequency spectrum.

At its core, the Footprint01 Gen2 incorporates a suite of newly developed Barefoot drivers: a 1-inch dual ring radiator tweeter, a 5-inch aluminum cone midrange driver, and dual 8-inch aluminum cone woofers mounted using Barefoot’s proprietary Dual-Force™ Technology coupling system. Engineered for extended linear excursion, lower distortion, and superior transient response, these drivers deliver pinpoint imaging and a remarkably detailed soundstage.

The new DSP platform introduces Barefoot’s patented SPOC™ (SPectrally Optimized Conversion) technology, which applies analog crossover filtering prior to digital conversion—preserving high-frequency detail and dramatically improving the signal-to-noise ratio. The result is higher resolution, greater clarity, and ultra-low latency for an unparalleled mixing and monitoring experience.

Supporting all this innovation is a meticulously refined cabinet design featuring increased internal volume, optimized bracing, and enhanced damping—all housed within a sealed enclosure with a sleek, modern industrial finish.

With its advanced engineering and compact form, the Footprint®01 Gen2 is not just a worthy successor—it’s a leap forward. It brings flagship-level Barefoot performance to a broader range of studios and creators.

Whether you’re mixing in stereo or building a 7.1.4 immersive environment, the Barefoot Sound Footprint®01 Gen2 delivers elite performance in a right-sized footprint—blending next-generation technology, real-world versatility, and Barefoot’s unmistakable sonic signature.
