What is the Best Multi-Monitor Calibration Tool?

Posted by Cliff on from the lots-at-once dept.

sojourndeath asks: "I am looking for a good way to calibrate multiple monitors (30-40), so that their color looks similar? It seems like everything I find is for profiling your monitor to your printer and scanner. I need to be able to have a bunch of users see the same color on any monitor? Does anyone have a good, accurate way of doing this?"

  1. Apple ColorSync Monitors by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I remember Apple's high end "ColorSync" CRT monitors, just before the days of LCD. Their top end model had a calibtration button. Pressing it would cause the monitor to flash and buzz and flicker for a few minutes before finally settling down. Apparently it also had some sort of auto calibration like the Barco monitors.

    (No, this wasn't a deguass cycle, they had that feature too, but degaussing only took maybe 25 seconds max)
