My local dealer Scotty went by at CES. He said the demo was pretty cool. He said the technology was a room mode canceling technology using multiple speakers but only outputting 2 channels. He said its technology to be used in cars. He was impressed. He's a DSP skeptic for sure. So that's a good thing.
Hello Dallasjustice
well... while we are pleased to have a limited demo at CES of what this new technology can do, at this time we have chosen to not reveal any deep technical details.
Our scientists and researchers have found that if no cost costraints are imposed we can go beyond digital room correction with a new radical approach we call Active Room Treatment. It is in fact a lot more than the room mode cancelling that has been mentioned, and it based on ideas from the fields of active noise control, sound field synthesis and room correction where our company have conducted research for many years.
We believe that Dirac Live offers the best possible value as a state of the art digital room correction solution.
I have to admit that Active Room Treatment is currently available only to the most powerful products, due to processing requirements, etc, so it may not be an affordable approach for everyone.
We offer Active Room Treatment at this point only to Dirac Live OEM licensees, for them to be able to offer something on the absolute leading edge to their customers.
If somebody has the opportunity of visiting us at the CES that's certainly the best way to know more about it but I will anyhow make more information available for the forumers in my nest post.
Ciao, Flavio
